The New York Liberty played two Top 4 squads last week, the Connecticut Sun and the Las Vegas Aces. The "superteam" rivalry was revealing for this young squad. Hear Brian Fleurantin and Erica L.

The @NewYorkLiberty earned a gutsy 89-88 OT win over the @WashMystics Sunday at Barclays Center. The Liberty didn't earn a lead until the fourth quarter and were down by as many as 17 points while only having a one-point lead.

Sabrina Ionescu led the Liberty with 31 points in the game, and Jonquel Jones led New York with 10 rebounds.

Misha Jones (she/they) joins the show to preview the Washington Mystics at New York Liberty on Sunday. We start by asking Misha our 'Brown Sugar' question: When did they fall in love with basketball? Then, Misha gives us an inside look into the Mystics. Currently fourth in the WNBA standings, what do we know about this team? How is Eric Thibault doing in his first season as head coach?

PLUS, the WNBA is rightfully seen as a beacon of hope for what inclusion can look like in professional sports. However, the league and the greater women's basketball community still have more work to do.

Other Podcast Topics:

• What did we learn from the first game on opening day?
• Who are the key players for the Mystics?
• What is Washington's identity?
