It all started on Thursday. The New York Liberty had an away game vs. the cellar-dwelling Indiana Fever on Friday night and so they were booked to arrive the day before. But Tropical Storm Elsa intervened and the team got stuck in New York for more than five hours.
Of course, the flight was canceled and the Liberty were told to return home, then regroup early on Friday. They finally arrived in Indianapolis Game Day, at 11:30 a.m. a mere eight and a half hours prior to tip-off. Not ideal and, no surprise, New York lost to Indy by 13 on Friday night, turning the ball over 20 times and shooting less than 40 percent from the field.
