We’re three months and 30+ games into the 2026 WNBA season. Naturally, it was time I asked long-time Liberty loyal and WNBA reporter Kenny Saint-Vil an important question: Are we okay? <3 You can listen to our conversation wherever you get your podcasts.
Kenny’s take was a lot more balanced than what a casual fan might see in the comment sections after a loss (or ugly win, like last night’s against the LA Sparks). He’s in the building every week, so I’m inclined to trust his read, which felt like a hopeful reality check.
Here’s what we got into:
Why it’s a Championship or bust situation for the 2026 NY Liberty
Placing our record in the context of player injuries and looming playoffs
The situation with Betnijah Laney-Hamilton and her ultimate release
This season’s standout performances from Pauline Astier and Marine Johannes
Insights into Head Coach Chris DeMarco’s relationships with players, and whether or not he’s passed the vibe check yet
Enioy, and let us know your takes in the comments. Links below to keep in touch with Kenny’s reporting on the Libs.
