The big news around the Washington Mystics is that franchise player Elena Delle Donne is looking to sign elsewhere. WNBA free agency is underway, but moves cannot be announced until February.
Let’s assume that Delle Donne is on the way out. Do you now think that the Mystics need to begin their first true rebuild since 2013? If so, they should start shedding some of their other veteran contracts, most notably Natasha Cloud’s and possibly Ariel Atkins’.
Washington’s future looks like it’s in limbo heading into the new year, and they are in a situation not unlike the Wizards in recent seasons.
