Sabally helps Liberty beat Lynx for WNBA title

The Liberty defeated the Minnesota Lynx 67-62 in a thrilling overtime Game 5 to win the WNBA Finals at Barclays Center on Sunday. It is New York's first championship in six appearances in the WNBA Finals since the league's inaugural season in 1997.

“This is what I've worked on my entire career, moments like this, and being able to come here and do this in a Game 5 at home just means the world,” Liberty center Nyara Sabally said.

Sabally scored 13 points off the bench for New York in the biggest game of the season, including a key steal and a fast-break layup in overtime.

“I think it’s great right now, especially now that the WNBA is expanding. This shows that there are many more opportunities for our women to achieve their goals,” said Liberty fan Connie Gonzalez.

“I have two daughters of my own that I definitely love. This awakens their enthusiasm for the game. My daughter always texts me about it,” said Henry Hall, another fan.

The Liberty's 2024 title is New York's first professional basketball championship since the Knicks won the 1973 NBA Finals.
