2020 Mystics Player Evaluations: Imagine what Aerial Powers could have done in a full season

Like many Washington Mystics players who participated in the WNBA Bubble, Aerial Powers highlighted the tremendous depth General Manager/Head Coach Mike Thibault has at his disposal. The fifth-year pro out of Michigan State University showed just how valuable of a player she is to this Washington squad.

In the Mystics’ first game of the 2020 campaign against the Indiana Fever, Powers helped pace the offense with 16 points, five rebounds and two assists on 71-percent shooting from the field. The opening match would set the tone for the rest of her time in Florida.

Before injuring her hamstring in Washington’s sixth game against the New York Liberty — an injury that would force her to miss the remainder of the season — Powers was on a tear.
