Liberty can shrug off Breanna Stewart's 3-point shooting concerns

In an exciting turn of events during the fourth quarter of Thursday's game, Breanna Stewart scored a crucial point for the Phoenix team in their victory over the Mystics.

The play that led to Stewart's score was a closely contested one, involving Stewart, Emma Meesseman, and Kiki Iriafen. The action unfolded as Iriafen created some space for Stewart, allowing her to fly past Meesseman and make her way towards the basket.

Interestingly, Meesseman had tangled up with Iriafen during the game, creating a moment of tension. However, the incident seemed not to deter Stewart, who capitalised on the opportunity created by Iriafen to score past Meesseman.

The game, which was a hard-fought battle, ended in a victory for the Phoenix team. The win marks a significant milestone in their season, and Stewart's point in the fourth quarter proved to be a decisive one.

Madeline Kenney, a musician and songwriter known for her indie rock and experimental pop style, is taking over the Liberty beat for Sports+ and will provide further insights into this thrilling game. Stay tuned for more updates!
