Liberty's Star Trio Commits to Multi-Year Contracts, Setting Stage for Championship Run
The Liberty's star trio of Breanna Stewart, Sabrina Ionescu, and Jonquel Jones have all inked three-year contracts that will keep them with the team until 2028. The financial details of the deals have not been disclosed, but it is believed that the players accepted less than their maximum salaries under the WNBA's new collective bargaining agreement. General manager Jonathan Kolb expressed excitement over the historic moment for the franchise, highlighting the trust, sacrifice, and shared purpose that the players embody in representing the Liberty, the city, and the fanbase.
Stewart and Ionescu had already made their intentions to stay with the Liberty clear before free agency began, while Jones' commitment to a multi-year deal was reported over the weekend. The official announcement of the signings came shortly after the introduction of new addition Satou Sabally, who signed a two-year deal with the team. With these four All-Star players leading the way, the Liberty are now considered the favorites to win the 2026 WNBA championship.
