Lynx vs Liberty: game preview

While the Lynx are aiming to further cement their status as the WNBA’s most successful team, the Liberty are chasing the first championship in franchise history. New York are bidding to banish the memories of their defeat in the Finals last year, when they lost out to the Las Vegas Aces.

The No. 1 seed in the 2024 playoffs, the Liberty booked their spot in the Finals by securing postseason revenge on the Aces, beating the Nevadans 3-1 in the Semi-Finals. Minnesota, meanwhile, eliminated the Connecticut Sun in a last-four match-up that went to a Game 5, with an 88-77 win in the decider taking the No. 2 seed into the championship series.

Like the Semi-Finals, the Finals will be a best-of-five series.
