New York Liberty (2-1) at Portland Fire (1-1) — Game Preview
The Liberty visit one of the WNBA’s newest franchises for a Thursday night tip off in Portland. New York is starting the season banged up, with Sabrina Ionescu out on a left ankle injury and Marine Fauthoux on the long-term list after knee surgery. The result has been more touches for Breanna Stewart, who is averaging 23.3 points and 9.7 rebounds while shooting nearly 96 percent from the line. The Fire have leaned heavily on Bridget Carleton, whose 19.5 points per game on 50 percent shooting are the most consistent offensive numbers on the roster. Portland is still finding its rotation in just its second-ever home stand, while New York is figuring out how to win without its starting backcourt.
