Washington’s defense has been their anchor, holding a respectable perch near mid-table in FG% and bolster their home court advantage during this three-game win streak. Brittney Sykes leads the charge offensively with ~17.9 PPG, while Sonia Citron (14.5 PPG) and center Kiki Iriafen (8.3 RPG) form a balanced frontcourt.

Washington Mystics' Kiki Iriafen has made history by being selected to the WNBA All-Star game as a rookie. The former USC Trojans All-American and rookie teammate Sonia Citron are the first pair of rookie teammates to be selected to the game since 1999.

The Washington Mystics are engaged in potential trade conversations to find forward Aaliyah Edwards a new home, sources told me and @alexaphilippou Multiple teams have reached out to the Mystics to inquire about Edwards, and they are taking the calls: https://t.co/PDW96u8aSz pic.twitter.com/wQj8aqG3HF
