New York Liberty and Connecticut Sun head-to-head record
The New York Liberty have a 3-2 lead against the Connecticut Sun based on their last five matches, but the Sun have won the last two meetings, with a thrilling 94-86 victory on May 10, 2025. Although New York controlled the series early on, winning three straight in the middle of 2024, Connecticut has recently improved significantly, controlling the Liberty's attacking rhythm. New York is still likely to start the game as the favorite, though, because of their season-high averages in scoring, field goal percentage, and defensive effectiveness. Recent wins by Connecticut indicate that they have discovered strategies to contend with New York, particularly by increasing their scoring and taking advantage of defensive lapses. It should be a tough game, but if the Liberty get back to their effective shooting and rebounding ways, they have a good chance of taking back the lead in this rivalry.
