No. 2 NY Liberty takes Game 2 against No. 3 Connecticut Sun: Betnijah Laney steadied the Big Apple ship last night, leading her team to an 84–77 win over the Sun with a 20-point performance, as the recently-crowned MVP Stewart contributed a solid 11-point, 11-rebound double-double.
- The dub evens up the series as the Northeast showdown heads to Connecticut for Friday’s Game 3.
No. 1 Las Vegas Aces take 2-0 series lead over No. 4 Dallas Wings: Though the Wings put up a fight, their grit was no match for the aforementioned Wilson last night.
