If Tonight's Game had ended after 30 minutes, the Mystics would not have lost to the Fever, 68-57. That's because Washington's young team led (or tied) conference-leading Indiana until the 31st minute of this evening's contest at Conseco.But the Mystics' tougher-than-expected early performance -- still without Lang, Alana or Mo -- was undone by a final quarter in which they had as many turnovers as points scored (7).
Two Mystics finished in double figures: Nicky led her team with 12 points (plus 6 boards), and Marissa fell just short of a double-double, ending the evening with 11 points and 9 rebounds. Rookie Victoria Dunlap (again starting in place of Lang) chipped in 8 points and 8 boards (plus 3 steals, 3 blocks and 2 assists!)
A good effort, but still another "L" in the standings. The Mystics are now 2-8 for the season. Next up: a lunch-time game in Seattle on Tuesday (3PM EDT).
