The New York Liberty are on the verge of blockbuster trade.
The franchise is reportedly adding 2021 WNBA MVP and four-time All-Star Jonquel Jones, who specifically requested a move to the Liberty, via a three-team deal. Jones guided the Connecticut Sun to a WNBA Finals appearance last season, losing to the Las Vegas Aces in four games. Rachel Galligan of Winsidr first reported the potential trade involving the 6-foot-6 big on Sunday.
The trade includes the Liberty adding combo forward Kayla Thornton from the Dallas Wings, where she’d been a starter since 2018, according to Howard Megdal of The Next Hoops.
