A new contender has emerged to challenge the defending champion Las Vegas Aces. Adding Breanna Stewart to an impressive surrounding cast may rewrite the franchise’s narrative for good while shaking up the WNBA’s power hierarchy, writes sabreenajm.

Davis hired the best coach on the market and paid her handsomely, built a new practice facility, attempted to circumvent the travel rules by buying out the middle seats next to his players, and has done so much more to make the Aces the most player-friendly franchise in the W.
Stewart is a combo forward who can slide between the three and the four depending on the roster context. If New York wants her to play power forward next to a single center, she’s capable of doing so.

Over her past four healthy seasons , Stewart has converted 70.
, for example, Stewart is more than capable of spreading the floor. She’s a career 37 percent shooter from 3-point range and can handle the ball on the perimeter as well. Even though she’d never be described as a playmaker, Stewart has always had a positive assist-to-turnover ratio and possesses an excellent feel for moving the ball.
The beauty of New York’s frontcourt is that all of the Liberty centers are also shooting threats, so they can space around Stewart while she attacks the rim. At 6-4 with a 7-1 wingspan — length that is unheard of in the women’s game — Stewart is near impossible to stop on the block; she can shoot over anyone and has great touch in the paint.Jones and Stewart played together for two seasons at UMMC Ekaterinburg, winning one EuroLeague title in the process.
