The New York Liberty clinched a berth in the 2024 WNBA playoffs on Tuesday, Aug. 16, with a 103-68 victory over the Los Angeles Sparks. The win improved the Liberty's record to 18-10, good for third place in the Eastern Conference.

The Liberty have been one of the hottest teams in the WNBA since the All-Star break, going 8-2. They have won their last five games, including an impressive 103-68 victory over the Las Vegas Aces on Sunday.
