NEW YORK — The WNBA offseason continues to get better for New York.
Star guard Courtney Vandersloot will sign with the Liberty, she announced Thursday on Twitter. The signing strengthens a roster that recently added two former MVPs and will be heading into the 2023 season after suffering back-to-back first-round playoff exits.
The move comes a day after 2018 MVP Breanna Stewart announced she will sign with the team on social media and weeks after the team finalized a three-team deal to acquire 2021 MVP Jonquel Jones from the Connecticut Sun. The blockbuster moves are an attempt to bring the franchise its first-ever WNBA title and build on the foundation that already features 2020 No. 1 overall pick Sabrina Ionescu and All-Star Betnijah Laney.
