The New York Liberty may have found their missing piece at exactly the right time.

Leonie Fiebich returned after nearly two months away and immediately reminded everyone how different New York looks with her on the floor—scoring 20 points with five rebounds and five assists in a statement win over the Indiana Fever.

With the Liberty potentially staring down Las Vegas in the first round—and NaLyssa Smith leaving the Aces’ latest win with an apparent knee injury—that matchup suddenly looks much more dangerous for Las Vegas.

Trysta and Sarah also compare monster performances from Caitlin Clark and Paige Bueckers, break down a fascinating Valkyries–Mystics playoff matchup, evaluate Washington’s terrifying young core, and review Portland’s unforgettable introduction of Rose the Dragon.

Later, the conversation turns to the confrontation between Natasha Cloud and Enes Kanter Freedom—and whether the WNBA is doing enough to protect its players from political stunts and bad actors.
