Off to a good start. The New York Liberty are fighting for their playoff lives, and will need to string together a bunch of wins together in a hurry against the teams they’re battling for playoff spots. They got the first one out the way in a dominant victory against the Phoenix Mercury on Sunday afternoon at Barclays Center. The Liberty will need some more games like that if they want to go far.
The opponent tonight will be the Los Angeles Sparks. It’s been a chaotic year for interim head coach, Fred Williams, and he’ll need to get his team back on the good foot in a hurry if they want to make it to the postseason.
