Pregame notes
The Mystics started the season so-so, with a 3-4 record, and two home losses.
On the face of it, the Sky should be similarly disappointed with a 3-5 start. However, the Sky have had success on the road, so far 3-1 away from Chicago.
So this
game promises to be balanced and unpredictable. More than that, this is also a WNBA Cup game. So more is at stake here than a regular season game.
Sonia Citron has started this season right where she left it last one. She’s leading the Mystics with over 17 points a game, shooting an impressive 54 percent from the field. And Kiki Iriafen who was also already an All-Star last season is dominating the board for the Mystics with double digits in that category to start the season.
What might make the difference though is the multiple injuries the Sky are currently suffering.
Here are the highlights from when these two teams met in March.
