Marina Mabrey, Sun hand Liberty fourth straight loss

Add to Favorite
Added to Favorite


Marina Mabrey racked up 18 points, 10 rebounds and eight assists as the Connecticut Sun extended the New York Liberty’s misery with a 78-62 victory Friday night in Uncasville, Conn.

The defending champion Liberty dropped their fourth straight game and set a season low for points scored. It is their longest losing streak since 2022. Sabrina Ionescu scored 23 points, but New York (17-10) shot just 33.9 percent from the field and committed 21 turnovers.

It was the worst loss yet for the Liberty, considering it came against the last-place team in the league, the Sun (5-21), who entered the night in a 1-5 rut.

Olivia Nelson-Ododa and rookie Leila Lacan had 16-point games off the bench for Connecticut, each shooting 6-of-8 from the floor. Tina Charles added 15 points.

An off-balance 3-pointer by Lacan lifted the Sun to a 67-55 advantage with 7:28 in the fourth quarter. A tip-in by Aneesah Morrow off Charles’ miss gave the Sun a 69-57 lead.

The Liberty trimmed the deficit to seven with 5:08 remaining after a 3-pointer by Jonquel Jones and a driving layup from Stephanie Talbot. The Sun regained control down the stretch with nine combined points from Nelson-Ododa and Mabrey.

A Mabrey transition 3-pointer gave the Sun a 56-46 lead with 3:36 to go in the third quarter. Jones blocked Charles but she recovered for an offensive rebound and layup, plus the ensuing free throw, to put the Sun up 63-53 with 2:05 in the third.

The Liberty led 20-15 at the end of the first quarter, but the Sun went on a 14-2 run, capped by a buzzer-beating jumper by Charles, to take a 44-37 lead into halftime.

The Liberty came into the contest 8-1 in their last 9 games vs. the Sun, most recently including a 100-52 victory on June 1.

The Sun controlled the glass as they outrebounded the Liberty by 13.
