Scouting New York Liberty at Chicago Sky
New York Liberty (6-9) at Chicago Sky (11-4)
When: 7 p.m., tonight
Where: Allstate Arena
TV: The U Too
Last time: On Thursday, the Sky defeated the host New York Liberty 75-55.
Skinny: Now sitting atop the Eastern Conference standings, the Sky looks to continue its dominance against New York. The Sky is 3-0 against the Liberty so far this season, with a rout taking place in Newark on Thursday. Rookie forward Elena Delle Donne scored a game-high 23 points in that game and then found out later that night that she has been named an all-star starter after finishing with more votes than any other player … The availability of Sky center Sylvia Fowles today will be a game-time decision. She did not play on Thursday after tweaking her right ankle in a game against Connecticut last week. She originally injured the ankle in June … New York guard and Chicago native Cappie Pondexter (17.3 ppg) is always a concern, but the Sky held her to just 9 points on Thursday.
Next: Sky at Washington Mystics, 10:30 a.m. Wednesday
