The Liberty entered this season as title favorites, only to bow out of the playoffs in the first round 12 days ago.
It was a letdown, for sure. The Liberty had so much talent on paper, but never got healthy enough to really put the pieces together.
It’s unclear what 2026 might bring. Sandy Brondello won’t be back, but Breanna Stewart, Sabrina Ionescu and Jonquel Jones are all expected to return.
Who might join them — with a new collective bargaining agreement, an expansion process for two new teams and a massive edition of free agency all likely in store — remains a mystery.
