Liberty match their own WNBA three-pointer record in 100-52 rout of Sun
NEW YORK (AP) — The Liberty matched their own WNBA record by hitting 19 three-pointers in a 100-52 rout of the Connecticut Sun on Sunday. The margin of victory was the second-largest in league history, falling short of the 59-point record held by Minnesota in a win over Indiana in 2017. It did set the franchise mark for biggest win, eclipsing a 43-point victory over Washington in 1998. Advertisement Sabrina Ionescu led New York with 18 points while Jonquel Jones added 13 points and 11 rebounds. Breanna Stewart and Leonie Fiebich also had 13 points. All four sat out for nearly the entire fourth quarter. Still, New York improved to 7-0 for the first time since the 1997 season. New York also hit 19 three-pointers against Chicago on May 22 to break the previous league record. The Liberty almost topped that mark through three quarters as they hit 18 threes in the first 30 minutes, but they went cold in the fourth from the outside, only making one. The Liberty finished off a busy week by winning their fourth game in six days. They now have a bit of a break now with their next game in Washington on Thursday. Advertisement Sunday's matchup was the first game of the three-week long Commissioner's Cup in-season tournament. New York made the final last year before losing to Minnesota. The Liberty got their revenge by winning the WNBA championship. New York took it right at Connecticut, building a 31-13 lead after one quarter as Stewart, Ionescu, Fiebich and Jones combined to score all the points. The Liberty kept it rolling in the second quarter extending the advantage to 60-28 at the half. New York shot 68 percent from the field in the first half, including making 12 three-pointers. The Liberty didn't let up in the third quarter and the points kept going on the scoreboard. Even up 50 points, New York challenged a foul committed by Ionescu on a three-point shot by Marina Mabrey. New York won the challenge and the star guard ran out on the court in excitement then high-fived the Liberty staff for challenging the call. Tina Charles and Jacy Sheldon led Connecticut (1-6) with 10 points each.

Emerging TE recruit Julius Miles sets finalists, verbal commitment date
Despite collecting nearly 30 scholarship offers through his rise as a football recruit, Julius Miles is down to just three. The Freeport (Fla.) High School star tight end, who also excels on the basketball court, will play his college football in the ACC. Advertisement "Let's make it a top three," Miles told Rivals. "Florida State, Louisville, Syracuse. "All of them are great options. I'm leaning on my family and the man above for the guidance in this decision." The date the college football world will learn of the output of said pledge has also been settled on. The rising-senior recruit will make his commitment public on July 5. Miles took visits to a handful of programs, with Syracuse earning the trip in early June and Louisville closing out the visit slate in hosting the Floridian this weekend. FSU is semi-local for the three-star, who has been to Tallahassee several times. Advertisement CLASS OF 2026 RANKINGS: Rivals250 | Team | Position | State CLASS OF 2027 RANKINGS: Rivals250 | Team | Position | State Miles commented on each finalist ahead of the final decision. Florida State: "With FSU I love what Gus (Malzahn) is installing in the offense, it's a no-brainer. I'm a Florida kid so staying home wouldn't be bad at all." Louisville: "Louisville always makes it feel like home and the system they present to me is great. They need a Day One impact tight end and see me doing that. Also they have a loaded class." Syracuse: "Their system fits me well and I love how they used Oronde Gadsden II and I could see myself topping everything he did in that system. The Syracuse staff also shows crazy love." Before averaging 27.5 points per game on the hardwood as a junior, Miles put together a head-turning football seas in registering 59 receptions for 895 yards and seven touchdowns for the FHS Bulldogs.
