URGENT UPDATE: The highly anticipated WNBA clash between the Washington Mystics and Atlanta Dream takes place today at 3:00 PM EDT! This pivotal game is crucial for both teams as they fight for playoff positioning.
The Atlanta Dream, currently at 17-11, could leap to the No. 2 seed with a win, especially if the New York Liberty face another upset against the Connecticut Sun. Meanwhile, the Washington Mystics (13-14) are in a nail-biting race for the final playoff spot, just half a game behind the Las Vegas Aces.
The Mystics are looking to recover from a narrow 68-67 defeat to the Golden State Warriors on Thursday, where Sonia Citron led the team with 16 points. The team struggled offensively, with only three players reaching double digits, including Shakira Austin and Kiki Iriafen, who both scored 10 points.
On the other hand, the Dream enter today’s game on a high after two consecutive victories, including a commanding 95-72 win over the Phoenix Mercury. Allisha Gray, a dark horse for the MVP title, shined with 26 points, while Naz Hillmon added 18 points and 9 rebounds to solidify Atlanta’s position as a top contender. Notably, Brittney Griner missed the last game due to a neck injury, raising questions about her availability for today’s matchup.
