Satou Sabally on wearing glasses now: “I’m part of the glasses community now... I see it as a representation of young girls that have to wear glasses now. It’s so expensive and fortunately I’m in a position to afford that... but it is very different. (1/2)
Satou Sabally said she's "full go" but the team is "just monitoring everything and easing myself back in."
Betnijah Laney-Hamilton said she wrote her individual goals down on paper but declined to share. Maybe she will after the season.
As for the Liberty's team goals: “We talked about it from day one, the goal is to win a championship. And now it’s not looking too far ahead.
Betnijah Laney-Hamilton on how she's feeling physically after missing all of last season rehabbing: “I feel good. It’s nice to be back out there, getting back to it, back in a team setting, back to practicing and everything.”
Jonquel Jones said "my heart was broken" when she found out Nyara Sabally got picked in the expansion draft.
"That was my sister... I didn’t expect to see her leaving.”
Asked whether she ever considered leaving New York in free agency this offseason, Jonquel Jones said, “There was never a point. There was never a point.”
