The Atlanta Dream are all set to host New York Liberty on Sunday, June 29th at the Gateway Center Arena, College Park, Georgia. All eyes would be on Jonquel Jones and Leonie Fiebich, whether they start against the Atlanta Dream or not.
Will Jonquel Jones and Leonie Fiebich play against Atlanta Dream?
The New York Liberty are currently leading the standings with an 11-4 record. On the other hand, the Atlanta Dream are just behind them with 10-6 record. Heading into the Sunday's clash, the New York Liberty will be without their star players Jonquel Jones and Leonie Fiebich.
Jones is sidelined due to a right ankle injury, while Fiebich is still fulfilling her overseas commitments. Both the players have missed the recent games and in their absence, their performance has seen a decline.
Despite the setbacks of both the players, coach Sandy Brondello is refusing to use their absence as an excuse. After the team's recent loss to Phoenix Mercury on Friday, Brondello delivered a stern message. She wants the other players to step up their game.
A lot of teams have lost EuroBasket players, Brondello said. Competing is something that's within: are you willing to do it or not? It's early days... they were a way better team than us, but how do we respond?
The New York Liberty started the season with an impressive nine game winning streak. But, the absence of Jonquel Jones and Leonie Fiebich has disrupted their rhythm. With both the players sidelined, the team is struggling to sustain early dominance. They have lost four of their last six games as they look to turn their fortunes.
