Double injuries left freedom to search for identity

It is difficult to know what to make freedom anymore.

They only played two games with their full power, spread 11 different starting assortments and won two acquisitions in the middle of the season.

Freedom will enter on Sunday with the burden of the longest loss chain since 2022.

LIBS dropped their fourth consecutive match on Friday, suffering a 16 points of defeat on the worst league team, The Sun.

The defense champions, who opened this season with a series of nine games, are now a shell for themselves.

Now, in the midst of playing six games in 10 days, freedom is tired of the disease and is afflicted with injuries.

It is not uncommon for the teams to suffer from injuries throughout the season, but the number of games that Liberty players miss is amazing.

Jonquel Jones recently returned to the squad after losing a month of ankle injury. SABRINA IONESCU, Natasha Cloud and Leonie Fiebich were also absent.

Freedom is currently playing without Breanna Stewart, Kennedy Burke and Nyara Saably, who were all marginalized in the foreseeable future.

Marine Johannès is the only player to appear in all 27 matches of The Liberty this season.

Freedom schedule does not have mercy on this month either. They play 14 games in August, including eight on the road.

There is little time for practice and comfort. In addition to the challenges is the fact that LIBS also has new players in this mix.

Stephanie Talbot’s integration process was not the most smooth. She had more than help transformations. But she played at least with efforts that some others faded in the mutations.

There is a reason for optimism with Emma Milman in a position can make her first appearance freedom Sunday in Connecticut.

Hope is that the high basketball intelligence rate, which is associated with the familiarity of the style of play and some of its teammates, makes this painful transition to the team that needs a desperate batch.

Another positive is that despite 8-10 in the past eight weeks, freedom (10-10) remains second in the league standings, although the dream and mercury are not far from them now.

In the wake of Friday’s defeat, freedom was strange in a strange way.

Discuss the possession game and the difficulty of the sun’s physical match. Ionscu even defended the team’s performance, saying that the effort was not the issue in the 16 -point loss for the worst league team.

She said, “Everyone there is their best.”

The entire team is tired of having to do more due to the circumstances. But no one will feel sorry for them.

Freedom hopes to end this wild journey on a high note on Sunday.
