New York Liberty Dominates Las Vegas Aces in Commissioner's Cup 2023 Final

The New York Liberty have defeated the Las Vegas Aces (82-63) in the final of the Commissioner’s Cup 2023. The team led by Jonquel Jones, awarded as MVP at the end of the clash, again reduced to a minimum some Aces that had been playing at a very high level throughout the season. With this victory, there are already two in the last 10 days for the New Yorkers (the last one by 38 points difference) against the current WNBA champions.

The Bahamian center, nationalized by Bosnia and Herzegovina, reached 16 points, 15 rebounds and 2 blocks, being the main internal reference for the Brondello team. Likewise, the bench formed by Marine Johannes (17 points in 14 minutes) and Kayla Thornton (8 points), together with the success of Sabrina Ionescu (3 decisive three-pointers in the second half) and the direction of Courtney Vandersloot (13 points and 10 assists ) ended up making a difference in electronics.

In this way, the Liberty defeat the Aces for the second time in their three meetings during the 2023 regular season. Less than a month before this phase ends and the Playoffs arrive, we will still have two more meetings between the two franchises. The night of this same Thursday and the night of August 28. Mark both dates on your calendars.
