Right now, it comes as no surprise that the Liberty are sitting second in the league with a 19-6 record. Along with Sabrina Ionescu, Stewart has been an absolute revelation for the Liberty this season, and it looks like they're going to the Las Vegas Aces' biggest challenger for the title. At the moment, New York is still 3.5 games behind the defending champs, with Aja Wilson and Co. also playing on Sunday against the 14-10 Dallas Wings.

Breanna Stewart and the Liberty get a day off on Monday before they return to action on Tuesday in a rematch against the Sparks at the Crypto.com Arena. Their big game coming up is a highly-anticipated matchup against the Aces next Sunday. That will be the second meeting between these two sides this season, with Las Vegas emerging with a 98-81 blowout win in June.
