Washington entered the fourth quarter trailing 68-44 as they stared down a 4-7 record. The sides traded buckets until the clock ran out, as the Dream came into CareFirst Arena and dominated the Mystics, 89-56. Gray finished with a game-high 32 points on 10-for-14 shooting. Citron led Washington with 10 points but was a -34.

The previous time the Washington Mystics took the floor, the WNBA’s youngest team had its best offensive performance of the season in a 37-point win. In the six-day break that followed, the Mystics were looking forward to the time off and the chance to get in some practice time after a busy start to the year.
