Tonight marked Sabrina Ionescu's third consecutive game with at least 20 points, 5 rebounds, and 5 assists, which tied the longest such streak in New York Liberty history and second-longest all-time in WNBA history. Additionally, she logged her sixth career game with at least 25-8-8, the most in WNBA history.

Kennedy Burke set her career-high with six steals, tied for the second-most a player has forced this season. She is the first Liberty player to do so since Courtney Vandersloot on Sept. 9, 2023, and just the 11th player in franchise history to record six or more steals in a single contest.

With nine boards, Leonie Fiebich matched her career-high on the glass. Her 15 points (6-11 FG) also matched her personal record for made field goals, and was one point shy of her regular season career scoring high.

The New York Liberty leads the WNBA in points per game (86.7). fast break points per game (14.6) and true shooting percentage (57.4%).
