The Washington Mystics finished the first half of the 2022 WNBA regular season with a 77-65 loss to the New York Liberty on the road Tuesday night.
In the game, the Mystics didn’t have an answer for Natasha Howard, who scored 27 points on 13-of-17 shooting for the night. While New York otherwise had a mediocre night offensively (44 percent shooting overall and 19.4 percent from three), the Mystics were even worse, shooting just 36.9 percent.
Given how poor the Mystics played on offense tonight, it should have been no surprise that Elena Delle Donne sat the game out due to resting her back.
