The New York Liberty will open their 26th season on Saturday, May 7 against the Connecticut Sun at Barclays Center, the team and WNBA announced Thursday.
New York’s 2022 regular season schedule features 36 games — up from 34 last season as the WNBA gets back to normal. The schedule included 18 games at Barclays Center. This will be the second season Joe and Clara Wu Tsai’s team in Brooklyn. Last season produced the Libs first playoff run in four years as well as the WNBA’s Rookie of the Year, Michaela Onyenwere. Betnijah Laney was also named to the WNBA All-Star team and Sabrina Ionescu’s jersey became the league’s top seller.
