Aerial Powers writes farewell letter to Mystics fans in column

On Wednesday, Minnesota Lynx forward Aerial Powers wrote an open letter to Washington Mystics fans on The Players’ Tribune. In the letter, she thanked fans for their support after playing for the Mystics from midway through in the 2018 season through 2020. The Mystics made two consecutive WNBA Finals appearances in 2018 and 2019 and won the championship in 2019.

In her column, Powers thanked General Manager and Head Coach Thibault and his staff, her teammates throughout the years, in particular Elena Delle Donne and Kristi Toliver.

Powers also thanked two specific fans. One fan in the front row wore an Apex Gaming PC shirt that was specifically designed for Mystics games.
