Jonquel Jones and the New York Liberty found themselves in an unusual situation as they prepared for the USA WNBA’s Commissioner’s Cup Championship Game. Instead of their usual home court at the Barclays Center, the team had to warm up at UBS Arena, the home of the New York Islanders. Despite efforts to make the arena feel like home, Jones expressed frustration with the decision to host the game away from their turf, feeling like it was more of a road game for her. The scheduling conflict arose because the Barclays Center was hosting the NBA Draft the following day, forcing the Liberty to adapt to the new environment.
