The D.C. government is a state of disbelief about the Washington Wizards and Capitals planning to move to Alexandria, Va. in 2028. But one team, the Washington Mystics is supposed to stay in D.C. no matter what.
And if Mayor Muriel Bowser has her way, the Mystics will stay at the Entertainment & Sports Arena in Ward 8. The ward also happens to be one of the most underserved jurisdictions in the District.
According to Mark Segraves of WRC-TV, Bowser’s office is looking to make sure that Monumental Sports & Entertainment, the owner of the three teams, keeps the Mystics there.
