New York Liberty star Breanna Stewart kept cool in the face of pressure as she led the team to its first WNBA title with a thrilling 67-62 overtime win in the decisive fifth game of the WNBA Finals against the Minnesota Lynx on Sunday. Stewart, who tallied 13 points in the game, drained a pair of free throws in the extra session to seal the victory and the title. She said she was determined to hit the shots, especially after she missed a potential game-winning free throw in Game 1, which the Lynx won in overtime. Stewart, a two-time WNBA MVP who was also twice named WNBA Finals MVP while leading the Seattle Storm to a pair of championships before joining the Liberty, said she tried to keep things simple in that moment.
