The New York Liberty and Minnesota Lynx will battle for the 2024 WNBA Championship this weekend in Game 5 of the 2024 Finals. It’s a fitting end to an epic final between the W’s two best teams.

The Liberty were on the verge of an elusive first championship with a stunning Game 3 win at Minnesota, where New York erased a 15-point deficit and won with a crucial 3-pointer near Sabrina Ionescu’s logo. But the Lynx managed just enough to stay alive in a hard-fought Game 4, winning with two crucial free throws from Bridget Carleton in the final seconds.

Now the two heavyweights face each other again. Will the Liberty finally win the first-ever title of the original WNBA series? Or will the Lynx celebrate a record-tying fifth WNBA championship at home in New York?
