Leo Fiebich makes his grand exit in his first playoff game in the United States
Leo Fiebich continues to put on one performance after another. The former Casademont player’s breakthrough in the WNBA is spectacular , with a very high performance that is going from less to more. The most demanding competition in the world is entering its decisive phase and the German is showing that her level is very high.
Last night, Leo Fiebich made his debut in the women’s NBA playoffs, with the game between his team, the New York Liberty, and the Atlanta Dream. It was a comfortable victory for the New York team, 83-69, with which they got on track to win the tie against the Atlanta team.

Fiebich came out of the gates to a standing ovation from the entire crowd who attended the game, who stood up when the game ended . She also received applause from her teammates after being the top scorer of the game, with an almost perfect performance. She scored 21 points in the 25 minutes she was on the court, which she completed with a rebound and an assist.
Her game was almost flawless. She was practically perfect in shooting, with 3/3 in free throws, ¾ in two-point shots and a perfect 3/3 in three-pointers.

After a regular season in which she has alternated brilliant performances with more discreet matches – always keeping in mind that it is her first season in the best league in the world – the German seems plugged in in the final stretch of the season.
The second game of the tie against Atlanta will take place on Wednesday, also in New York, and will then be played on a flight to Atlanta, where the game could be decided.
