WNBA Finals Set: Aces and Liberty to Battle for Championship
Las Vegas, New York to Clash for Title
WNBA Finals to Air on ABC, ESPN
The WNBA Playoffs culminate this week with the championship series between the Las Vegas Aces and New York Liberty. The best-of-five series is set to begin on Sunday, September 10, with Game 1 airing on ABC.
The Aces are seeking their second consecutive WNBA title, while the Liberty are looking to win their first championship in franchise history. Both teams have star-studded rosters, setting the stage for an epic series.
The Aces are led by reigning MVP A'ja Wilson, who averaged 19.5 points and 9.4 rebounds per game in the regular season. Chelsea Gray, Kelsey Plum, and Jackie Young also form a formidable core for Las Vegas.
The Liberty are led by Breanna Stewart, a two-time WNBA champion with the Seattle Storm. Stewart averaged 21.3 points and 7.6 rebounds per game this season, and she will be joined by former MVP Jonquel Jones and All-Star Sabrina Ionescu.
The Finals series is expected to be a close and competitive affair. The Aces have home-court advantage, but the Liberty have won both regular-season meetings between the two teams.
WNBA fans can catch all the action of the Finals on ABC and ESPN. Game 1 will air on ABC on Sunday, September 10, at 3:00 PM ET. Games 2 and 3 will be broadcast on ESPN, with Games 4 and 5 (if necessary) returning to ABC.
