NY Liberty v. Indiana Fever preview: Welcome to the pre-season!

At long last, we’ve got WNBA basketball! It took a long time to get here, but here we are and the New York Liberty are looking to get back to the WNBA Finals. They’re looking pretty different from when we last saw them, but they’re still plenty good and have a chance to do something […]

Barclays Center getting art-themed makeover

Barclays Center is going to look different next season, starting from the moment you walk in the door.

Jordi Fernández talks extension on, of course, Sant Jordi Day

Jordi Fernández, fresh off singing his contract extension, is building a tradition in Brooklyn. For the second straight year, he celebrated Saint George’s Day at P.S. 001 in Sunset Park, also known as the Day of Books and Roses.

Takeaways from the beginning of New York Liberty training camp

The New York Liberty are three days into training camp, their first under Head Coach Chris DeMarco. It’s not a full house quite yet. Among the late arrivals are Breanna Stewart and Marine Johannès — they just faced off in an all-Turkish EuroLeague Women’s championship round, with Stewie’s Fenerbahce squad defeating Johannès and Galatasaray… DeMarco […]

Sean Marks sees global imprint across the board in NBA

Sean Marks may have been the GM of the Brooklyn Nets for a decade, but his roots lie elsewhere. The native of Auckland, New Zealand, is part of the first generation of international NBA players, as he said among the first 40 or 50. He became the first player from his home country to play […]

Nets extend Jordi Fernandez, entire staff in unprecedented move

In a move extraordinary and likely unprecedented in NBA history, the Brooklyn Nets announced Monday that the franchise has extended head coach Jordi Fernandez and nine assistant coaches. The Nets staff is among the largest if not the largest in the league. “Jordi is a tremendous leader who, along with his coaching staff, put his […]

YES Network honors Chris Carrino, ‘toughest guy in sports’

Hard times produce heroes. Hall of famers too. Chris Carrino qualifies as both, a hero for his courage in the face of a debilitating disease, a Hall of Famer for his skills as a broadcaster. As YES Network explained this week, Carrino is a man for all seasons — 22 and counting — whose career […]

New York Liberty introduce Satou Sabally, lock up core long-term

Satou Sabally is officially a member of the New York Liberty. On Friday morning, the franchise introduced their newest star across the street from Barclays Center at Brooklyn Basketball Training Center, where she hosted a clinic for some lucky youth that got to spend Friday hooping with a 3-time All-Star instead of going to school… […]

ANALYSIS: Jordi Fernandez about to move from losing to winning

Ask a Brooklyn Nets executive about the team’s tank — excuse us, “playing the possibilities” — and they will explain that the key to getting that top three lottery seed is not so much about the head coach making bad in-game moves, but depriving the head coach of the talent he needs to win before […]

Mr. Whammy: It would be an honor to rep team at Draft Lottery

With the NBA Draft Lottery about three weeks away, fans are talking about two big mysteries: where the team will pick on May 10 and who will rep Brooklyn on the dias in Chicago that night. Last year, when the Nets dropped from the sixth seed to the eighth, it was Jordi Fernandez, the head […]

Liberty keep wowing: Han Xu returning on camp contract

The New York Liberty are not stopping or even pausing in their quest to create a WNBA dynasty. After signing Satou Sabally, the three-time All-Star, they’ve made headlines almost daily with often innovative moves to bring on top talent from overseas … or keep players … or bring players back. On Wednesday, they did it […]

Three stats that defined Brooklyn Nets 2025-26 season

If there’s one thing all NBA fans love more than tanking, it has to be numbers and math, right? A few years ago, our old pal Kevin Durant rhetorically (and rather vulgarly) questioned if anyone wants to “look at graphs” while having a conversation about hoops. It’s since become something of a rallying cry for […]

Liberty draft-and-stash Manuela Puoch at #41 pick, near offseason’s end

It wasn’t the most consequential move they made in this uber-truncated offseason … far from it, but at Monday night’s WNBA Draft, the New York Liberty drafted Manuela Puoch with their only selection, the 11th pick of the third round, or No. 41 overall. Puoch, an Australian with South Sudanese heritage, is a 19-year-old forward […]

Notable quotes from Nets goodbye … and look ahead

As Lucas Kaplan had put it to you yesterday, the Brooklyn Nets hosted an official end of the season private press conference on Monday to share the takeaways everyone gathered from this season. Despite the traditional setting of the atmosphere with members of the organization on the dias and various journalists sitting in seats waiting […]

Sean Marks addresses MPJ extension talks, other contract decisions

I have found one more positive of a tanking season. The Brooklyn Nets hosted exit interviews on Monday morning, but thanks to the players that had already bid farewell to the season (largely due to season-ending injuries), the festivities at HSS Training Center lasted only a couple hours instead of the the usual marathon. General […]

From D-II to Brooklyn: How Chaney Johnson keeps earning his way, showing his grit

Every path to the NBA isn’t built the same. Some players lean on raw talent. Others have to grind for every opportunity. Brooklyn Nets two-way forward Chaney Johnson fits firmly in the latter group. Call it grit if you must. It would be a good description. Growing up in Alabaster, Alabama, a tough town south […]

Brooklyn Nets cap regular season with loss to Toronto Raptors, 136-101

Nic Claxton gives a good interview; you just have to ask the right questions. He isn’t as boisterous as Day’Ron Sharpe or as chatty as Egor Dëmin, but he is quite honest, particularly given the constraints of player-reporter Q&A, where honesty only benefits one side. He wondered aloud, “Maybe I need to talk to a […]

LIVE DISCUSSION: Brooklyn Nets at Toronto Raptors, 6:00 PM ET

The End… almost. Final game of the year and the Nets already secured a bottom-3 position. The stress of the people rooting for losses — and those rooting for wins — is no more. The attention, after this bout with Toronto, can officially shift to May 10. It’s still a lottery but the odds are […]

Nets vs. Raptors preview: The Finale

And here we are, at the end of the road. This season had it’s highs, and then it had its lows …. a lot of them. A lot of people will probably say that the lows outweighed the good, which is a fair thing to say. What I can say is that this year was […]

Championship or bust: Satou Sabally signs with New York Liberty

In a stunner, the New York Liberty have shaken up the WNBA landscape … again. On April 11, Alexa Phillippou, Kendra Andrews, and Shams Charania reported that Satou Sabally is signing with the New York Liberty Sabally went on social media to confirm the news… The 6’4” 27-year-old joins a Liberty team that is reloading […]
