Breanna Stewart Just Locked Down a Rare WNBA Double-Double Record That Even Lisa Leslie Didn’t Touch

Breanna Stewart has been stacking accolades like a kid hoarding candy, but Sunday night at Barclays Center, she pulled off something that made even the stat geeks pause.

The New York Liberty star didn’t just help her team stay perfect in June with an 86-64 demolition of the Washington Mystics. She casually walked into the history books with her 100th career double-double — a milestone that puts her in exclusive WNBA company. According to ESPN Insights, Stewart reached the century mark in the league, a feat that cements her as one of the most consistent forces the game has ever seen.

But she wasn’t done there. Stewart, 31, also leapfrogged Hall of Famer Lisa Leslie for 14th place on the WNBA’s all-time scoring list. Entering Sunday with 6,250 career points, Stewart needed just 13 to tie Leslie’s 6,263. She finished with 14 points, pushing past the Sparks legend with room to spare.

The Numbers Behind the Night

Stewart’s stat line against the Mystics read like a video game on rookie mode: 14 points on 5-of-12 shooting, 12 rebounds, seven blocks, one assist, and a perfect 3-for-4 from the free-throw line in 30 minutes. The seven blocks? That’s a career high for the former UConn star, according to team stats.

Fans online noted that Stewart’s defensive performance was just as headline-worthy as her scoring. She swatted shots with the kind of authority that turns highlight reels into must-watch clips. The Liberty haven’t confirmed any official chatter about her defensive groove, but the eye test says she’s locked in.

Jonquel Jones Steals the Scoring Spotlight

While Stewart grabbed history, Jonquel Jones grabbed the scoring lead for New York. Jones dropped 20 points on 7-of-11 shooting and helped the Liberty shoot 49 percent from the field as a team. New York also drained 11 three-pointers at a 42 percent clip, making the Mystics pay from deep all night.

The win wasn’t just another notch in the win column — it punched New York’s ticket to the Commissioner’s Cup championship game and extended their winning streak to seven games. The Liberty are now undefeated in June, and with Stewart playing at this level, that streak might keep growing.

For a player already destined for the Hall of Fame, Sunday was the kind of night that makes you wonder how many more milestones she’s got left. If this is Stewart in June, the rest of the league should be nervous.
