New York Liberty players took to social media this week to share their thoughts and experience on a range of issues. Feb. 1 marked the start of Black History Month, which has some Libs thinking about the significance of celebrating diversity and heroes who have fought for civil rights for Americans.
There was still a lighter side as well. Tina Charles was able to attend Friday night’s Knicks game at The Garden, and meet up with fellow UConn Husky Kemba Walker courtside. Bec Allen paid a visit to Hungary and took in the sites (and cold temps), and international competition is still going strong for several Libs abroad.
Take a look at some of the top social media shares from the past week!
