Yet for another night, the team secured an 82-74 victory over the Connecticut Sun — with many thanks to the efforts of backup forward Kennedy Burke.Michelle Farsi for New York PostAfter the Sun knotted the score at 61-61, Burke corralled an errant pass and took it all the way to the tin to give the Liberty a two-point lead.
The highlight moment arrived when the five-year veteran converted a layup that gave New York a five-point advantage with 8:48 to go. “I think she gets more and more comfortable in what we’re doing here,” Brondello said. “Playing her game has been really big for us these last two games, especially.” Heading into a nearly monthlong All-Star break with a league-leading 21-4 record, the Liberty anticipate slotting Stewart right back next to Ionescu and Jones when play resumes on Aug. 15.
