New York-The Liberty Star, Breanna Stewart, left the defeat for 101-99 of the team against Los Angeles Sparks on Saturday night after 3 minutes with an injury at the bottom of the leg.
Stewart had three points and a rebound before leaving. Stewart seemed to hurt his leg while running along the court. She went to the locker room and never returned to the bank.
“Without update, I hope it's fine,” said Liberty coach Sandy Bondello after the defeat that broke a five -game winning streak.
New York was playing the second half of a consecutive. Stewart had a quiet score game in Friday's victory over Phoenix with only six points. She had eight rebounds, five assists, two blocks and two robberies.
Stewart entered the game with an average of 19 points, 6.8 rebounds and 4.0 assists in the season to help New York (17-7) to the second best record in the WNBA.
The MVP twice had not lost a game this season. After playing much of July at home, New York will be on the way to five of his next six games.
New York also had two other injuries, since Kennedy Burke had cramps and Leonie Febich has been dealing with an injury in the hand he suffered against Phoenix.
“It's hard and resistant, he pushed him,” Bondello said about febich.
