Before getting to the recap of tonight’s game, two important notes to mention. First, wishing Dallas Wings center Isabelle Harrison a speedy recovery after she twisted her left ankle in the fourth quarter. Second, happy 38th anniversary to Mike and Nanci Thibault.
Tonight epitomized why sports fans should never turn off a game, no matter the score. Heading into the night, the Mystics sat at 4–7, while the Wings were 4–8. With both teams missing key players — Emma Meesseman sat with a shoulder strain, while Satou Sabally was rested — this was an evenly matched game.
With Meesseman out, Tianna Hawkins (11 points and five rebounds) regained her place in the starting lineup.
