The Washington Mystics defeated the Seattle Storm, 69-58 on Saturday night at home, getting them back to .500 with a 12-12 record. It’s also their second win against the Storm, who fall to 15-11.
Washington held the Storm to just 32.8 percent shooting overall tonight. With the exception of Nneka Ogwumike, who scored 18 points, the Storm struggled all around to find an offensive rhythm as a whole. But even then the Mystics’ defense really started kicking in the second half, when the Storm shot just 22.9 percent from the field. Ogwumike missed all 5 of her shots and was scoreless.
