The Seattle Storm finished off the Washington Mystics with a 86-83 win at the Climate Pledge Arena for the first game of what looks to be a very entertaining series.
This game got off to as good of a start as the Mystics could hope for as they took a quick 7-0 lead. That lead would be the largest lead the Mystics could muster though. Seattle would counter and from there the game became very back and forth. For the whole game, there were a total of 15 lead changes and 11 ties, and neither team held a double digit lead.
