NY Liberty vs. Phoenix Mercury preview: Libs look for their ninth win in a row
There are certain games you use as a measuring stick for yourself. The opponent on the other side is the best of the best and the team you're chasing. If you do well against that opponent, it validates everything you've been doing and boost your confidence in the future. For the New York Liberty, Saturday's game could be the start of something special.
On Saturday, the Libs faced the Las Vegas Aces for the first time since... ya know. The seafoam brought their seven-game winning streak into this one and left with it intact with a terrific 90-82 victory. New York is now 12-2 on the WNBA season, in first place headed into the Commissioner’s Cup, half game out of first in the East.
