If the current WNBA standings hold, the Washington Mystics will make the 2024 WNBA playoffs. You read that right.
The Mystics are 13-13 since an 0-12 start with two games left to play. As of the morning of Sep. 16, Washington controls the 8th seed by virtue of a three-way tiebreaker with the Atlanta Dream and Chicago Sky. All three teams are 13-25, a full five games back of the 7th-seeded Phoenix Mercury. The Dream and Sky still play each other once, virtually narrowing the playoff race down to the Mystics versus the winner of that game.
