The Liberty are taking the torch from the Nets’ failed Big 3 and the neighboring Knicks.
Stewart and Vandersloot, who previously have played together in the Euroleague during the offseason, spoke about their plan to join forces in the WNBA and how this season seemed like the perfect time.
Breanna Stewart, left, and Courtney Vandersloot answer questions from media during their Liberty press conference at the Barclays Center in Brooklyn.“We both wanted to play together in the WNBA and go after a WNBA championship. … We’re here for more than just the money,” said Stewart, the 28-year-old forward who is a former MVP, two-time champion and arguably the best player in the world. “I don’t think last year I was ready to completely leave Seattle [and legendary teammate Sue Bird].
Vandersloot said she was drawn during the free-agent recruitment process to the Liberty’s plans and ambitions. “The vision right away was so clear. It was: ‘This is what we see, this is what we’re going to go do, we want to bring a championship, we want to bring the best players here, we’re going to take care of you.’ It was everything that we’re looking for,” Vandersloot said. “I think we bought into how special it would be to bring a championship to New York.”
