Sabrina Ionescu helped the New York Liberty to their 87-77 win over the Aces in Game 1 of their playoff series, putting 21 points on the board, and with Game 2 of the series taking place at the Barclays Center in Brooklyn, the Liberty will do so have the home advantage again.

The next Liberty vs. Aces game will air Tuesday at 9:30 p.m. ET on ESPN2. The game will also be available to stream on WNBA League Pass after it ends.
