Connecticut SunvsWashington Mystics
CON 84/WSH 92
Things to say
The Washington Mystics beat the Connecticut Sun 92-84 at home.
01
opener
Mystics handled the Sun 92-84 at home. Never really in doubt down the stretch. Washington just had more buckets when it mattered.
02
key player
Sonia Citron went for 22 and looked like the best player on the floor. She was getting to her spots all night.
03
hot take
Connecticut is 7-21 for a reason. Aneesah Morrow drops 21 and they still take the L. No help around her.
04
deep cut
Kiki Iriafen quietly grabbed 10 boards, owned the paint. And rookie Georgia Amoore running the point with 5 dimes is a nice sign for Washington.
05
exit
Mystics are over .500 and climbing. Curious to see if they can keep it rolling.
The recap
Washington took care of business at home, riding Sonia Citron's 22 to a 92-84 win over a Sun team that just can't get out of its own way at 7-21. Kiki Iriafen ate them up on the glass with a double-digit rebound night while Georgia Amoore ran the show.
Aneesah Morrow gave Connecticut buckets with 21 and Charlisse Leger-Walker was slinging dimes, but it wasn't nearly enough. The Mystics inch back over .500 and the Sun take another L.
