The New York Liberty officially signed former WNBA Finals MVP Emma Meesseman on Friday in a major boost to their repeat hopes. Meesseman, who has not played in the WNBA since 2022, decided to join the Liberty last month, but had to wait for her visa application to be processed.

Emma Meesseman is officially returning to WNBA action. The New York Liberty’s newest addition will suit up tonight against the Connecticut Sun, a much-needed reinforcement as Breanna Stewart remains sidelined without a clear return timetable.

Jonquel Jones had 15 points and 10 rebounds to lead the New York Liberty to an 85-76 victory over the Dallas Wings on Tuesday night.
