LAST TIME OUT

Seattle defeated Washington in its last game 81-77, handing the Mystics their first loss of the season while also winning its fourth-straight game and improving to 4-1 on the year.

Jewell Loyd led the way with 27 points, her fourth-straight game with 20 or more. Breanna Stewart also had 25 points on a season-high 11 made field goals.

With the Storm up one with under a minute to play, Loyd knocked down a midrange jumper to put Seattle up three, 80-77.

The next trip down for the Mystics, Natasha Howard intercepted a pass and was then fouled with 0.9 seconds left. Howard split the pair of free throws, putting the game out of reach of the Mystics and giving Seattle the victory.
