The Chicago Sky visit Barclays Center to face the New York Liberty on July 22, 2026, with Chicago sitting at 9-17 and New York at 14-12.

Jonquel Jones complements her inside, pulling down 9.2 rebounds a night with a 7.1 to 2.1 split between the defensive and offensive glass.

Players to Watch: Chicago Sky vs. New York Liberty
Chicago Sky
Kamilla Cardoso — C. Cardoso anchors the Chicago frontcourt, putting up 14.2 points and a team-high 8.5 rebounds per game while converting at a 59.2% clip from the floor. She’s just as reliable from the stripe, knocking down 73.3% of her free throws, and her rebounding splits 6.0 on the defensive glass to 2.5 on the offensive end, giving Chicago a steady low-post presence even as the wins have been scarce.
Natasha Cloud — G. At the point for Chicago, Cloud distributes 4.5 assists per game alongside 9.8 points, though her 2.2 turnovers a night reflect the burden of directing an offense playing without four players sidelined by injury. Her 43.8% shooting from the field and 33.3% from three give the Sky at least one dependable table-setter on nights when the rotation is stretched thin.
New York Liberty
Breanna Stewart — F. Few players in this matchup carry more offensive weight than Stewart, whose 21.1 points per game pace the Liberty attack on 47.7% shooting from the field. She’s automatic from the line too, hitting 85.1% of her free throws, giving New York a reliable scoring option to lean on in close games.
Pauline Astier — G. Rounding out New York’s backcourt, Astier logs 24.3 minutes a night while running the offense, averaging 3.6 assists against just 1.7 turnovers per game. That assist-to-turnover balance makes her a steady hand alongside Stewart and Jones in the Liberty rotation.
Jonquel Jones — C. Jones patrols the New York frontcourt averaging 9.2 rebounds per game, with 7.1 coming on the defensive end and 2.1 on the offensive glass. Paired with Stewart up front, she gives the Liberty one of the more balanced rebounding tandems in this matchup, particularly against a Chicago frontcourt that leans heavily on Cardoso alone.
