Game Preview
The Liberty (13-10) resume their slide down the league standings, having lost six of their last nine games. They are also coming off a 90-85 loss to the Lynx, seeing Kayla McBride and Olivia Miles combine for 48 points in Minnesota’s win. Sabrina Ionescu was a major bright spot with 25 points, eight rebounds, five assists, and two steals. Breanna Stewart came next with 17 points and seven rebounds, while Jonquel Jones provided 15 points and 12 rebounds.
The Tempo (9-13) are seeing a rough stretch, falling in four consecutive games. They are 2-8 in their last 10 contests, suffering a big dip in form. Toronto is coming off a 108-95 loss to Dallas, giving up 74 points to the trio of Paige Bueckers (34), Arike Ogunbowale (20) and Jessica Shepard (20). Marina Mabrey led the Tempo with 34 points, Laura Juakaite followed with 25 points and three rebounds, while Isabelle Harrison contributed with 18 points and eight rebounds.
Liberty vs Tempo Predictions
The Liberty want to bounce back from their rough stretch of performances, while the Tempo hope to escape from its losing streak. New York stands out as the healthier team with Toronto dealing with multiple injuries. Breanna Stewart, Sabrina Ionescu and Jonquel Jones will certainly look to be active on the offensive side of the ball against Toronto’s defense. That being aid, our betting pick here is for the Liberty to defend a 6.5-point spread.
