Sky vs Liberty predictions
The stage is set for an epic showdown at the Barclays Center as the undefeated New York Liberty face off against the Chicago Sky, who are looking to snap their two-game losing streak. But before we dive into the bigger picture, let's take a closer look at some of the key players who could make all the difference in this matchup. For the Sky, I think Marina Mabrey is due for a big game - she's been averaging 16.5 points per outing, and I wouldn't be surprised if she eclipses the 20-point mark against the Liberty's stingy defense. Meanwhile, Dana Evans has been dishing out assists like they're going out of style, and I expect her to continue facilitating the Sky's offense with ease.
On the other side of the court, the Liberty boast a trio of stars who are playing like they're on a mission. Breanna Stewart, the reigning WNBA scoring champ, has been terrorizing defenses to the tune of 19.8 points per game - I think she'll have her way with the Sky's frontcourt, especially if Jonquel Jones can continue her rebounding dominance (9.5 boards per game, anyone?). And let's not forget Sabrina Ionescu, the phenom point guard who's been whipping up assists like a pro - I predict she'll have at least 7 dimes on the night, maybe more.
So, when the dust settles, who's going to come out on top? I think the Liberty's stifling defense and elite scoring punch will be too much for the Sky to handle. The Liberty are on a 4-game win streak for a reason, and I think they'll make it 5 in a row with a convincing win over the Sky. The Sky will keep it close early, but the Liberty's depth and talent will ultimately prove too much to overcome. Liberty take it by 12, 85-73. What do you think?
