Washington Mystics Struggle Against Chicago Sky in Latest WNBA Matchup

Slow Start Dooms Mystics in Chicago

Washington's Offense Stutters, Sky Defense Dominates

The Washington Mystics fell to the Chicago Sky 89-71 in a disappointing performance on Tuesday night. The Mystics, who entered the game with a 12-10 record, were outplayed by the Sky from start to finish.

The Mystics struggled to find their rhythm on offense, shooting just 38% from the field and 25% from three-point range. Elena Delle Donne, the Mystics' leading scorer, was held to just 12 points on 4-of-14 shooting.

The Sky, on the other hand, shot 50% from the field and 38% from three-point range. Candace Parker led the way for the Sky with 22 points, 9 rebounds, and 5 assists.

Mystics' Defense Fails to Contain Sky's Attack

Chicago's Balanced Scoring Too Much for Washington

The Mystics' defense, which had been one of their strengths this season, was unable to contain the Sky's balanced attack.

All five Sky starters scored in double figures, and the team assisted on 26 of their 35 made field goals.

The Mystics were also outrebounded by the Sky 43-29, which gave Chicago numerous second-chance opportunities.

Looking Ahead for the Mystics

Tough Stretch Continues for Washington

The loss to the Sky was the Mystics' third in their last four games. They now sit at 12-11 on the season and are in danger of falling out of playoff contention.

The Mystics have a tough stretch of games coming up, with four of their next five games against teams currently in the top four of the WNBA standings.

If the Mystics want to make a run at the playoffs, they will need to find a way to turn things around quickly.
