Where: Michelob Ultra Arena, Las Vegas, NV
How to Watch: Monumental
Injuries
Mystics: Darianna Littlepage-Buggs and Betnijah Laney-Hamilton sat out Washington’s last game on Sunday. Laney-Hamilton should be ready to play against the Aces.
Aces: Chelsea Gray, Jackie Young, A’ja Wilson, Cheyenne Parker-Tyus all missed Las Vegas’ game on Sunday. The first three sat for rest, so it’s likely they’ll be back in action tomorrow.
Pregame notes
The Mystics are going on the road, on their West Coast
trip, and they are cruisin’!
They’re on a seven-game winning streak, by far their best stretch of the last six years. They just beat the Mercury, the Dream, the Wings (twice), and the Aces in a D.C. nail-biter a couple weeks ago.
They now face the tough Aces for consecutive games in Las Vegas Tuesday and Thursday. This will be a moment of either relaxing and letting go of the rope, or pushing ahead to stun the rest of the WNBA and climb ever further up the rankings — the Mystics would have the fifth seed in the playoffs if the regular season ended today.
The Aces are interested in getting their revenge for that tough loss a couple weeks ago, 100-99 back in D.C.
This will be a must-watch one! Let us know your thoughts in the comments.
Here are the highlights from that game in D.C.:
