The Washington Mystics lost to the Seattle Storm, 84-82 on Sunday afternoon at CareFirst Arena in Washington.
If you watched this game in the beginning and then turned the TV off for your own sanity, I don’t blame you. Washington was behind 28-19 after the first quarter. But they did claw back every period after that. Ultimately, this was a legitimate contest that could have gone either way. But still, Washington is putting in the final touches for another lottery finish — a finish that could still keep them away from getting a top pick. But then again, that may very well be what the front office wants, right?
Former Mystics star Brittney Sykes (is it still a crime to call her a “former Mystics star”?) scored 10 points in her first game back in Congress Heights. Nneka Ogwumike led Seattle with 30 points.
For the Mystics, Shakira Austin led with 30 points, while Sonia Citron added 14 more.
The Mystics’ next game is on Thursday against the New York Liberty on the road. Tip off is at 7 p.m. ET. See you then.
