Ionescu earned the same title last week, becoming the first Eastern rep to earn multiple such honors this season. This is also the first time a single player has won back-to-back Player of the Week awards while repping the Liberty since August 2022, when Ionescu herself pulled off the feat amidst a playoff chase.

Stephanie Talbot, signed by the Liberty this week after getting waived by the Valkyries, logged 17 minutes — her most since arriving in Brooklyn — and was on the court during the final moments of the game. She went 0-for-2 from the field and collected four rebounds.
