What happened: The New York Liberty announced their starting five, with Leonie Fiebich among the opening unit. The lineup was rolled out as the team's first group for the matchup.

Why it matters: Fiebich's continued presence in the first unit underscores the role the wing has carved out in New York's rotation, having started for the Liberty earlier this month. A settled opening group helps New York build chemistry as the 2026 regular season progresses.

What to watch: Watch whether Fiebich holds her place in the starting group as the Liberty's regular season continues.
