Stephanie White will go to the Indiana Fever while Tyler Marsh is going to the Chicago Sky. The Washington Mystics are still figuring out their General Manager situation.

Monumental Basketball President Michael Winger is looking to bring in a new Washington Mystics General Manager. But once he makes that hire, there won’t be as many quality head coaches to bring on.

First, the Indiana Fever hired former Connecticut Sun head coach Stephanie White. White was also a former Fever head coach herself.

we have named Stephanie White as our next head coach.

welcome home, @StephanieWhite!

We’re so proud to have you as our head coach.

The Fever and Sky are two of the WNBA teams that have more certainty about whom they will build around after the 2026 offseason when a new Collective Bargaining Agreement is expected to take effect. The Fever have superstar point guard Caitlin Clark while the Sky have forward Angel Reese. Clark and Reese are entering their sophomore seasons in 2025.

The Mystics’ front office and head coach vacancies are high risk, high reward. Should Washington get the No. 1 pick in the 2025 WNBA Draft, they will likely pick Connecticut Huskies point guard Paige Bueckers, who would be Washington’s franchise player. In addition, the Mystics may not have to “deconstruct” their roster like the Washington Wizards NBA team has. If anything, the Mystics vacancies would be quite desirable.

That said, Washington has the lowest odds of getting the No. 1 pick. Therefore, a multi year deconstruction project seems more realistic than not. Assuming that happens, the Mystics would probably have a tough time getting these positions filled, considering Winger’s reported intent to use the Wizards’ current strategy to the Mystics.

While it may be frustrating that the Mystics haven’t done anything publicly since Mike and Eric Thibault left, Winger is taking the right approach for now to focus on bringing in the General Manager first, likely after the draft lottery. That result will probably determine what path Washington takes and how desirable the franchise would be for a good while.
