Chicago Sky News

Confirmed Lineup: Lindsay Allen, Marina Mabrey, Chennedy Carter, Angel Reese, Kamilla Cardoso

  • Elizabeth Williams (knee) — Out for season

New York Liberty News

Confirmed Lineup: Courtney Vandersloot, Sabrina Ionescu, Leonie Fiebich, Breanna Stewart, Jonquel Jones

  • Betnijah Laney-Hamilton (knee) — Out

  • Nyara Sabally (back) — Available

The Liberty will host the Sky after both teams won on Wednesday. It remains to be seen if Laney-Hamilton will be available after missing the previous outing, but if she's not, Leonie Fiebich will likely draw another spot start. The matchup between New York and Chicago is interesting due to the teams' different play styles. The Liberty attempt a league-high 29.8 three-pointers per game, while the Sky attempt 14.7 per game, the fewest of any team. Stewart and Jones are next in line to try to slow down Angel Reese, who was recently named Eastern Conference Player of the Week after averaging 16.8 points and 14.0 rebounds per game last week.
