The WNBA offseasons are always eventful, with multiple players engaging in off-court activities, and fans get to see new developments on various topics.
For the New York Liberty superstar, Breanna Stewart, there are two big tasks at hand as she holds an authoritative position in the WNBPA and Unrivaled league.
Amid this, there were rumors around the beef between the veteran forward and Jonquel Jones, which started with some ‘mysterious posts’ from both players.
While Jonquel Jones addressed the rift with Stewart earlier in the week, the UConn star also responded to the same.
Breanna Stewart Reacts To Rumors Of Feud With Jonquel Jones
The confusion that led to the rumor began with Bre’s post on November 3, which targeted ‘two-faced people’. The cryptic post didn’t have many details, but Jones’ subsequent post on social media ignited fire as she also sent a cryptic post, “if 11 toes we’re had 11 toes would be down 😌. You got two strikes with me. Because after the third it’s 💨”.
The baseball reference (two strikes) hinted at ‘something bad’ and fans connected the dots, assuming there is a rift between the two top players. Laughing at the assumption, Stewart cleared the confusion and wrote on threads, “Why did I just find out you think me and JJ are beefing?? Never that!!!!! Bozos 🤦🏻♀️,”

While both players are on the same page regarding the ‘no rift’ stance, they didn’t confirm their ‘targets’ in the confusing posts. For Liberty fans, the ‘positive’ news about the good relationship between their top two forwards will be welcome, as they hope to see them continue to play together for the franchise.
While both champion players are unrestricted free agents ahead of the 2026 season, Breanna Stewart drops a three-word confirmation on her return to the New York Liberty in her exit interview. The three-time champion will aim to lead the franchise to glory once again in the upcoming season.
Even though she failed in the 2025 season, she still remained one of the top players in the league and received a special mention by Forbes.
