New York Liberty Crowned Champions: A Historic First

Writer's picture: Maria MyraineMaria Myraine

New York finally got its pro basketball title. Leave it up to the ladies, though!


Last night in Brooklyn, the New York Liberty beat the Minnesota Lynx, 67-62, in an overtime winner-takes-all, Game Five match-up. The win marks New York's FIRST WNBA title, just one year after falling short on their home court (against the Las Vegas Aces).


The top-seeded Liberty was led by Jonquel Jones' 17 points, earning her a Finals MVP trophy. In its entirety, the game was a tight one, coming down to the wire in overtime. The game didn't end without a bit controversy, though, as Lynx Coach, Cheryl Reeve, (and many of us fans), called out the refs for bad calls--ultimately leading to the Liberty win.


For the Lynx, Napheesa Collier and Kayla McBride combined for 43 points--a tremendous effort that still fell short.


Congratulations to the 2024 WNBA Champions, New York Liberty!
