Strategic Outlook

Mystics’ Focus: With Brittney Sykes traded, rookie Sonia Citron becomes the offensive focal point. Washington must improve rebounding and limit turnovers to stay competitive.

Wings’ Challenge: Without Bueckers, Dallas leans on Arike Ogunbowale and NaLyssa Smith for scoring. Their defense (allowing 86.5 PPG) remains a liability.

X-Factor: Bench production and transition defense. Both teams struggle to close quarters, so late-game execution will be key.
