Game Notes
The Mystics are looking to get back over .500 after a big win over the Indiana Fever on Wednesday. Rookies Sonia Citron and Kiki Iriafen have been stepping up, averaging 15.0 and 14.2 points per game, respectively. Veteran guard Brittney Sykes leads the team with 22.0 points per game and recently contributed 21 points and nine rebounds in the Fever win.
The Liberty, despite playing on consecutive nights, continue to dominate offensively, leading the league with 94.0 points per game. Breanna Stewart and Sabrina Ionescu are key contributors, averaging 19.3 and 13.8 points per game, respectively. Natasha Cloud, facing her former team, adds 15.3 points and 8.3 assists per game.
This matchup will test the Mystics’ developing roster against the Liberty’s experienced lineup. Washington’s defense, allowing 78.5 points per game, will need to be at its best to contain New York in what should be an exciting contest.
