The Washington Mystics are 7-6 in the 2021 WNBA season, fourth in the WNBA standings after last night’s upset victory over the Seattle Storm. Washington has shaken off a 2-5 start and has now won four of their last five games. While the team is still looking to get more consistency from its backcourt, their most consistent performer this season is center Tina Charles, who is leading the WNBA’s scorers with 25.3 points per game.
When the Mystics acquired her last year, the hope was that she would be an additional low-post star along with Emma Meesseman and Elena Delle Donne, but neither of them has suited up this year due to international team commitments and a back injury, respectively.
