Daily News | Natasha Cloud’s Mystics show Breanna Stewart’s Liberty they’ve still got work to do
Elena Delle Donne scored 13 points for the Mystics while Kristi Toliver tallied 10 on Friday night. WASHINGTON — As Breanna Stewart met with the media before the New York Liberty officially tipped off the first game of“We won’t be perfect, especially now, especially as we work out a lot of kinks,” Stewart said while seated next to fellow marquee newcomer Jonquel Jones and head coach Sandy Brondello.
But Stewart knew what everyone wanted to hear, and she felt it, too. After all, the two-time WNBA champion with the Seattle Storm — and four-time All-Star, two-time Olympic gold medalist, and four-time national champion at Connecticut — lit up the league’s offseason hot stove like rarely seen before as she debated whether to leave the northwest for the northeast.
“I think you embrace it,” Stewart said. “I think you have to. I think that everybody knows, with the roster that we have, we automatically have a target on our back even though we haven’t done anything.”Nor did she hesitate to say “we want to do something that this franchise hasn’t done, and that’s win and really get the city behind us.”There was a measuring stick right across the floor when New York tipped off its season Friday night.
