New York Liberty vs. Chicago Sky Game Summary

The New York Liberty vs. Chicago Sky game started with the home team taking a seven-point lead in the first quarter. The Liberty bounced back with a notable second quarter, taking it by 29-13, going into halftime up nine points. The Sky tried to overcome the disadvantage in the second half, but the Liberty had an answer for every adjustment the Sky made.

Ionescu was keen to take this win, and after having three more players scoring on double digits, the Liberty left Wintrust Arena with their 20th dub of the season.

In contrast, Mabrey and Onyenwere were the only double-digit scorers for the Sky. Kamilla Cardoso couldn't keep up with Jones, even looking frustrated at some points. Angel Reese wasn't a factor in this game, barely making three shots in 13 attempts, ending her double-double streak. She did finish the game with 16 rebounds, but it wasn't enough for her team to get close to the Liberty.
