New York Liberty prepares for 2025 WNBA season, facing challenges with injuries and team chemistry while defending their title.

The New York Liberty are gearing up to defend their WNBA championship title in the 2025 season after clinching their first championship in 2024 against the Minnesota Lynx. The team, spearheaded by the dynamic trio of Sabrina Ionescu, Breanna Stewart, and Jonquel Jones, faces significant challenges ahead.

Maintaining team chemistry will be crucial as they integrate younger players into the mix while managing injuries to key stars like Breanna Stewart and Betnijah Laney-Hamilton. The departure of experienced players such as Kayla Thornton adds another layer of complexity to their title defense strategy.

Other teams are also preparing for the upcoming season, with Cameron Brink highlighting the Los Angeles Sparks as potential dark horse contenders. Meanwhile, Flau`Jae Johnson has opted to return to LSU for her senior season instead of entering the WNBA draft. The league continues to innovate despite facing financial challenges, and the Sparks will honor Candace Parker by retiring her jersey on June 29 during a game against the Chicago Sky.
