And she’s played a lot of minutes — more than 12,000 in her WNBA career, plus thousands more overseas and in college.Bumps and bruises have become expected for the 34-year-old New York Liberty guard.

In recent years, organizations across the WNBA have demonstrated investment in a number of areas. Facilities have been a common place in which upgrades have occurred — like in Indiana, where therecently unveiled a renovated locker room, practice gym and arena, or in Las Vegas, where the Aces are now practicing in a 64,000-square foot facility.

Much has changed since then. Barclays Center is now the team’s home. And in its bowels are numerous offices, a recently overhauled locker room, a weight room and a training room, which has a yellow BELIEVE sign above one of its doorways — all for the Liberty. Players, not surprisingly, cycle throughout the rooms, with their needs capable of being met at any time. “It’s a safe space,” Acosta says.
