00:00And Jones and Hamby will jump it up. Our 30th anniversary game is underway here in LA.
00:10Here's Phoebus. Phoebus hooks it back. Jones catch fire and hit from three.
00:19Wide open after the creation from Phoebus as you see Wheeler going into the mid-range and one thing that's
00:25been interesting as the Liberty, she described the New York Liberty as Big Big.
00:28Big Big, which is bigger than big. It is.
00:32Saboli buries the three with a hand in her face. With the Liberty, he said, look, you have to adjust
00:38to the roster.
00:39It's not just you have a way of doing it. It's adjusting to your personnel.
00:42And he looked at the roster and he said, on the move, finding Hamby.
00:49Hamby looking for a cutter. Instead, it's Atkins from three. She got it. Much needed for Ariel Atkins.
00:55Here's Phoebus. Out to Jones.
01:00Stewart wants it in the lane. Bounces beautifully to Phoebus for the finish.
01:05Off to Jones.
01:10Saboli guarded by Atkins. Saboli lets it fly and knocks down another.
01:15You have a three-guard lineup for New York. Playing a little zone here.
01:20New York Liberty have played a lot of zone this season.
01:22Plum, what a move. Kelsey Plum with a tough bucket.
01:28Hoodies today.
01:29Looks great. Yeah, all the throwback stuff looks good.
01:31Yeah.
01:35Plum a three. It is good.
01:43Gohanes all the way in. Able to scoop it home.
01:47Simone Augustus. Plum averaging 25 on 50% right now.
01:52Here's Plum scooping it up.
01:54Padine using the window beautifully.
02:00Here's Astier.
02:03Astier on the drive. Plops it in off glass.
02:06She just has a nap.
02:08She got even better from the time I watched her in December to start a camp and it's continued to
02:14improve.
02:16Astier bounces. Stewart lays it in. Beautiful trail feed.
02:21She was running the middle of the floor and then vacated so there was room for Stewie coming down the
02:25middle.
02:26First points for Brianna Stewart.
02:29Hamby sees a lane.
02:31Pups it in off the window.
02:33Both offenses.
02:34Astier pops it alive.
02:36Two for one opportunity for New York if they hurry.
02:39Johannes leaves.
02:40Astier reverses it in.
02:42But no other teams really and certainly not in history.
02:46Johannes connects from three.
02:50A 10-point Liberty lead at the end of one.
02:54Very poorly to begin the season.
02:57Under 20% as Nekagumike comes up with a steal.
03:02And lays it in.
03:04Timeout New York as LA is on a push.
03:08But Robin Roberts and Geno comes 30 seasons after the pair called the network's first ever WNBA game.
03:15Really looking forward to that as Hamby lays it in.
03:20You know, while we were talking with T-Spoon, congratulations to Laura Siegler.
03:24Scored her first WNBA points.
03:27Coming off the bench today for LA as Phoebus Siegler, who is so impactful for Louisville this season.
03:36Helping get them to the Sweet 16.
03:38Here's Pharrell pumping it in on the cut.
03:45Off to Stewart.
03:47Five to shoot.
03:48Stewart all the way in.
03:50Cups it home.
03:52That space.
03:53Such a focus for Chris DiMarco.
03:56And then wants a lot of reading and reacting on both sides of the floor as Plum.
04:0110 off the bench for Johannes.
04:038 for Astier for New York.
04:06Jonquil Jones.
04:07Another deep catch.
04:08And the finish.
04:10Surrounded underneath.
04:11Gets blocked by Jones, who is flat-footed with an arm out.
04:15Astier lobs.
04:17Stewart finishes.
04:18Timeout LA.
04:22Off to Stewart.
04:23Five to shoot.
04:24Stewart all the way in.
04:26Cups it home.
04:28Great spacing by the New York Liberty.
04:30And she had...
04:31Correll turns it over.
04:32Here is Jones.
04:33Phoebus fires underneath.
04:36Stewart roving, taking, and hitting.
04:39New York shooting at 58% from the floor as Hamby kicks it out.
04:46Burrell's three is good.
04:49Longboard Burrell with help in Hamby.
04:53Burrell will fake.
04:54And lay.
04:58Jones nearly had it swiped by Plum.
05:02Shot clock at three.
05:04Zabili dumping it in.
05:05Jones got it off.
05:06Fendin back to Johannes.
05:10Her three rims off.
05:13Ionescu the rebound.
05:15One-second difference game and shot clock.
05:18Zabili bodies in for the finish.
05:23She has been getting her sea legs after multiple injuries.
05:28She says Atkins buries the three.
05:32Stewart into the paint.
05:34Flings it out.
05:36Jones will fire again.
05:38You bet!
05:42And again, they're trapping Plum off of any kind of ball screen.
05:46Trying to get the ball out of her hands.
05:48A good finish by Nneka.
05:49But Jones with space.
05:52Zabili extra feed.
05:53Febish connects.
05:56Some beautiful basketball there from the Liberty.
06:00Between New York and L.A.
06:04Here's Burrell finding Agumike.
06:06Beautiful action there.
06:08And the easy lay for Nneka.
06:11She's an all-time great L.A. spark.
06:14Stewart can't hit the three.
06:16Onescu secures it.
06:17The one guard on the floor with the O rebound.
06:20And Febish takes advantage.
06:22Looks at each other as she's able to drain the three on her.
06:25New York four of five from three in this third.
06:28Burrell, no.
06:29Oh, Agumike, the rebound.
06:32The putback is good for Nneka Agumike.
06:35Earlier in the game.
06:37Ziegler, the turn.
06:38And lays it in.
06:40Early on, it was a foul.
06:42Plum can't hit that three.
06:44Rare inefficient game from three for Plum.
06:47She's one of five as Stewart serves it in.
06:51Oh, Burrell, the crossover, the hesitation.
06:56Agumike putting it on the deck.
06:58The leaner is good.
07:00A 69-56 lead for New York over L.A.
07:06Pauline Astier fended off with the left.
07:09Finish with the right.
07:14Agumike has the last six for L.A.
07:16Plum puffs, banks, plus the foul, and a chance for three for Kelsey Plum.
07:23But a terrific pass inside by Shue.
07:29Burrell got fouled and finishes.
07:31Plus the foul.
07:34Happy Father's Day to you, Ryruks.
07:36I mean, I was wondering if you were going to say it, but thank you.
07:41Here's Allen burying the three.
07:47Short on a three.
07:53Hamby lays it in with the left hand.
07:57Thabaly had 11 in the first half.
07:59Gets a score here in the third.
08:00Loses it.
08:01Hamby the steal.
08:03With time.
08:04Wheeler will lay it in.
08:11Terrific getting to chat with Lisa Leslie.
08:13Her poignant, beautiful thoughts.
08:17Here's Plum.
08:19Plum dancing, dishing, tend to shoot.
08:23Wheeler.
08:24Punics.
08:26Tie game at 84.
08:31Here's Stewart poked away by Hamby.
08:33Stewart insistent.
08:35No.
08:36Plum the board.
08:37Ray Burrell, a key catalyst for the comeback.
08:40Here's Agumike.
08:42The fake, the drive, the speed, and the finish.
08:46Here is Stewart.
08:49Directing traffic.
08:50Sabaly deep catch on Plum.
08:52Double comes.
08:53Jones to tie.
08:54She got it.
08:5688 off.
08:58Johannes off the glass.
09:00Running with Stewart.
09:02Stewart surges in.
09:04Sheds her defender.
09:05And lays it home.
09:07New York.
09:10Astier on the attack.
09:12Pups it in.
09:13Puss the foul.
09:14And a chance for Astier letting it fly.
09:18Three-point Liberty lead.
09:19Wheeler gives it up.
09:21Agumike to tie.
09:23You bet.
09:26You can forget about the three-point lead and fouling.
09:29Not.
09:30This is a big one.
09:31Got that.
09:32Two-point game.
09:33Eight seconds to go.
09:35Here is Wheeler.
09:36Up the floor.
09:37Wheeler with three.
09:39Wheeler gives it up.
09:40Agumike for the win.
09:42You bet.
09:43You bet.
09:44What a fitting finish to the 30th anniversary game.
09:49L.A.
09:50With the walk-off win.
09:58All right.
09:58We'll go.
09:58We'll go.
09:58All right.
