It’s a must win on Sunday as the Washington Mystics failed to clinch the final playoff spot in the 91-80 loss to the New York Liberty. It just seemed New York wanted it more as they knew a loss would end their playoff hopes.
And that's it. The Liberty pull into a tie with the Mystics for the final playoff slot as Washington loses 91-80.
Mystics have to win Sunday to get in as New York now holds the tiebreak.
