Marine Fauthoux went from two minutes in the New York Liberty’s first-round series to a major role against the Atlanta Dream. Her postseason promotion came with more decisions and some very big moments.

Her passing, shooting and growing responsibility tell the story of a guard who stayed ready and answered the call when her opportunity arrived.
