Mabrey and Charles help Connecticut beat short-handed New York 78-62
UNCASVILLE, Conn. (AP) — Marina Mabrey scored 18 points and Tina Charles added 15 to help the Connecticut Sun beat the short-handed New York Liberty 78-62 on Friday night. It was the fourth consecutive loss for the Liberty (17-10), who were missing Breanna Stewart. The star forward is recovering from a bone bruise in her right knee. New York also was without Nyara Sabally (knee) and Kennedy Burke (right calf strain) and only had eight healthy players. The team is in the midst of its longest losing streak since 2022 when the franchise had five-game and seven-game skids. Emma Meesseman joined the squad on Friday and the 2019 WNBA Finals MVP suited up, but didn't play as she was still getting acclimated to the squad. Coach Sandy Brondello expects her to be in the lineup on Sunday when the teams play again in Connecticut. For the Sun (5-21), it was a big victory for a young team looking to establish its identity. Reserves Olivia Nelson-Ododa and Leila Lacan each had 16. Connecticut trailed 20-15 after the first quarter before getting hot in the second. The Sun took a 44-37 lead at the break when Charles hit a jumper just before the halftime buzzer. The Sun shot 50% from the field in the opening 20 minutes. The team kept it going in the third and extended its advantage to 56-46 on Mabrey's 3-pointer with 3:36 left in the period. New York, which was playing its sixth game in 11 days, got within 69-62 on Stephanie Talbot's layup with 5:08 left. But those were the last points the team scored. Sabrina Ionescu scored 23 points and Jonquel Jones add 14 for New York, which had 21 turnovers. ___ AP WNBA:

Liberty suffer inexcusable loss to WNBA-worst Sun for fourth straight defeat
We've got you covered on the Liberty beat Join Post Sports+ for exciting subscriber-only features, including real-time texting with Madeline Kenney about all things Liberty and WNBA. tRY IT NOW UNCASVILLE, Conn. – The Liberty gave up. Or at least that's what appeared to be the case late Friday as New York fell 78-62 to the last-place Sun. It was another abysmal, sloppy effort by New York, who vowed to play better after a lengthy postgame meeting in Dallas Monday. Nevermind the fact the Liberty are down three key players. That should be no excuse for what unfolded Friday night at Mohegan Sun Arena. Comparing each roster, New York should outmatch the rebuilding Connecticut at each position. 4 Sabrina Ionescu of the New York Liberty looks on during the game against the Connecticut Sun. NBAE via Getty Images Instead of dominating, though, the defending champions got embarrassed for the second time in five days and suffered their fourth straight loss. The Liberty had slippery fingers, errant passes and too many steps, resulting in a season-high 23 turnovers. They were outrebounded 42-29, too. Sabrina Ionescu scored 23 points and had five assists and seven rebounds, but it didn't matter. The Liberty can be frustrated by the officiating and the bout of injuries. 4 Connecticut Sun guard Saniya Rivers (22) and New York Liberty guard Natasha Cloud (9) work for the ball in the first half at Mohegan Sun Arena. David Butler II-Imagn Images But what they really should be mad at is by laying an egg against the lowest-ranked team in the league. What happened to the team who put up a valiant effort against Minnesota on Wednesday? Wasn't the standard of the way 'Liberty Biberty Basketball' should be played established that day? Friday was only the Sun's fifth win this season. The Liberty collectively are reeling, and if they can't right the ship quickly, then they could be in trouble. 4 New York Liberty forward Kennedy Burke (22) reacts after being called for a foul against the Connecticut Sun in the first half at Mohegan Sun Arena.

David Butler II-Imagn Images Friday was not the way the Liberty hoped to respond after a promising showing against the Lynx. And New York's schedule is brutal this month, with the Liberty scheduled to play 14 games, including eight on the road. New York is set to wrap up this road trip Sunday with a rematch of Connecticut.
