Stewart was drafted by Minnesota Lynx superstar Napheesa Collier, one of the All-Star captains. Ionescu landed on Caitlin Clark's squad, who's serving as the other team captain for the game. With the Liberty stars pitted against each other, Stewart joked she's not going to let Ionescu get anything easy.

The New York Liberty hosts the Indiana Fever tonight at the Barclays Center for an 7:30 PM ET showdown, one of the last regular season games before the All-Star weekend begins.

Caitlin Clark and the Indiana Fever take on Breanna Stewart and the New York Liberty in this WNBA matchup on Wednesday night.

Following the All-Star break, the Liberty’s schedule in the new 44-game season has two back-to-backs and anywhere from three to four games a week for the remainder of the regular season, which concludes Sept. 11. Stewart is soaking in the extra rest at home.

Breanna Stewart and Leonis Fiebech combined for 39 points as they led the Liberty to a 19-point comeback win over the Dream.
