Breanna Stewart Joins New York Liberty in Historic Free Agency Move | #WNBA #Liberty #Storm #Stewart

 

Two-time WNBA champion and 2018 MVP Breanna Stewart has signed with the New York Liberty in free agency, the team announced on Wednesday. Stewart, who spent her first seven seasons with the Seattle Storm, is one of the most decorated players in WNBA history. She is a four-time All-Star, four-time All-WNBA First Team selection, and two-time WNBA Finals MVP.

Stewart's signing is a major coup for the Liberty, who have been rebuilding in recent years. The team has not made the WNBA playoffs since 2017, but Stewart's arrival gives them a legitimate chance to contend for a championship.

"I'm excited to join the New York Liberty and help build a championship team," Stewart said in a statement. "I've always been a fan of the Liberty and their history, and I'm looking forward to playing in front of the best fans in the WNBA."

Stewart's signing comes at a time when the WNBA is experiencing a resurgence in popularity. The league's television ratings have been on the rise in recent years, and the 2022 WNBA Finals was the most-watched in league history. Stewart's arrival in New York is sure to only further boost the league's popularity.

The Liberty will be hoping that Stewart can help them end their playoff drought in 2023. The team has a talented roster that also includes Sabrina Ionescu, Natasha Cloud, and Betnijah Laney. With Stewart leading the way, the Liberty have a chance to be a major force in the WNBA for years to come.
