The New York Liberty (7-4) visit the Connecticut Sun (2-10) in a WNBA 2026 Commissioner's Cup game on Monday, June 8, at Mohegan Sun Arena.
These two teams have already faced each other once this season, with the Liberty carving out a dominant 106-75 victory. The Liberty shot the ball efficiently with a 52.2% clip, while dishing out 26 assists as a team. Breanna Stewart proved too much for the Sun's defense, finishing with 31 points.
The Liberty won that game without Sabrina Ionescu, but they have found ways to achieve success without their star guard. Despite the injured Ionescu sitting out, New York have won four straight games, including a recent 83-75 victory over the Indiana Fever.
It helps that the Liberty are one of the few teams in the league that ranks in the Top 5 in both offensive and defensive rating.
Meanwhile, the Sun have lost five of their last six games, including their last two. Recently, they dropped a close 85-80 decider to the Chicago Sky.
This rematch against the Liberty will be difficult for the Sun, considering that they'll miss the services of starting center Brittney Griner. It will be tougher for them to match up against Stewart and Jonquel Jones.
