WNBA Saturday Night
Phoenix Mercury vs New York Liberty

The Mercury (11-7) try to extend their season high five-game win streak (longest since eight in 2018) against the last-place Liberty (2-15). Phoenix won the first meeting 96-67 on Aug. 2. New York has lost three straight since upsetting Chicago on Aug. 25. 

The Liberty have been without No. 1 overall draft pick Sabrina Ionescu (ankle) for all but three games. Mercury G Diana Taurasi has made a WNBA record 28 3-pointers over the last four games. F Brianna Turner became the third player in league history with at least 16 points, 12 rebounds, six blocks and four assists in Thursday's 105-81 win over Indiana. G Shatori Walker-Kimbrough played 38 minutes vs. the Fever with a plus 24 rating. F Nia Coffey (hand) is probably and G Sophie Cunningham (hip) is questionable.
