As the Washington Mystics try to finish the regular season on a sort of run that would guarantee them a top-4 seed, they also were looking to split the season series with the Chicago Sky.
However, the Sky stormed out of the gates to basically finish the game after one quarter, taking a commanding 29-15 lead. As the scoreboard at halftime showed 55-34 for the home team it was increasingly clear that the second half will be extended garbage time.
The Mystics did make a meaningless fourth quarter run to finish the game only down 10, 93-83, but that was merely cosmetics: the Chicago Sky dominated this one from the opening tip and the game was never close.
