Last weekend, I wrote that the Washington Mystics were already locked into the fifth overall seed in the 2022 WNBA Playoffs against the Seattle Storm. The rest of the matchups are set with the regular season finishing yesterday. Here are the first round matches, which are Best of Three series this season:
- No. 1 Las Vegas Aces vs. No. 8 Phoenix Mercury
- No. 2 Chicago Sky vs. No. 7 New York Liberty
- No. 3 Connecticut Sun vs. No. 6 Dallas Wings
- No. 4 Seattle Storm vs. No. 5 Washington Mystics
Since the Mystics are fifth overall, they do not have a guaranteed home game.
