The Mystics signed Shey Peddy as a replacement player on Saturday while Emma Meesseman and Kim Mestdagh are playing for Belgium in Women’s EuroBasket. Peddy was on the Mystics’ training camp roster and was cut before opening day.
Natasha Cloud was really, REALLY happy about the signing. So she shared the news on her Instagram account. Here’s a tweet to show you the news.
That said, there’s a more important issue to look at here. The Mystics suspended Meesseman and Mestdagh. While I certainly get that the two won’t be paid for the next month, it’s clear that they were suspended just because they are Belgians, not Americans.
