Sabrina Ionescu first double-double of the season and Emma Meesseman's awaited debut helped end the Liberty's longest losing streak in three calendar years, as New York avenged a Friday defeat to the Connecticut Sun with an 87-78 victory on Sunday at Mohegan Sun Arena.

The New York Liberty officially signed 2019 WNBA Finals MVP Emma Meesseman ahead of Friday's game at the Connecticut Sun. Here's what to know:

Meesseman, a double-double threat and great outside shooter, was a no-brainer signing, and Minnesota Lynx head coach Cheryl Reeve was open about her team’s pursuit of her. New York securing her addition elevated their championship odds, particularly given the fact that Breanna Stewart and Jonquel Jones have both battled injuries this season.
