It's an away game for the Mystics, so no problem for them as they win. Likewise, Atlanta are road warriors, so playing at home makes this tough for them.
Wright doing an amazing job for the Dream.

Mystics unleash 2 headed center on the league as Elizabeth Williams plays her first game for the Mystics tonight. Center rotation of EWill/Shakira will make it tough for Atlanta to score inside. Outside scoring will be slowed down by Tasha Cloud/Ariel Atkins/Alysha Clark - one of the best guard/wing defending trios in the league.
Shakira can start learning the "tricks of the trade" from one of the best defending centers in the league. EWill has done well defending against mostly taller opponents (some a LOT taller) and will share tips with eager learning Shakira Austin.
When Shakira's in the game, the Mystics will feature the ability to hit the three from all 5 positions - when EWill's in the game, from 4 out of 5 players on the floor.
We'll see if the outside trio of defenders can contain outstanding rookie Rhyne Howard. By the same token, all 3 can hit from outside so Mystics can match Rhyne basket for basket.

| It will take a miracle without Elena for the Mystics to score a win against the high scoring Dream in Atlanta.

| Both the Dream and the Fever are way more entertaining/competitive this year.

Nice to see her do this well. I still ponder what might have been, had Brenda kept her happy at MD....even without her, the Terps were among the best in the Big Ten.

| The Dream lost but they still impressed. Howard started off on fire (6/6) but then connected on only 1 of her following 10 shots to finish 7/16. Who was the defender who stopped her?

Not surprising! Guess she's fully healed. Great news!
