PREVIEW: The Washington Mystics will look to snap their five-game losing streak when they visit the Golden State Valkyries at Chase Center on Saturday night. Despite their recent struggles, the Mystics have shown resilience through the performances of rookie guards Sonia Citron and Kiki Iriafen, who have been carrying the offensive load this season. Washington currently sits in 10th place in the WNBA standings, four games behind the final playoff spot with just six games remaining. The Mystics are averaging 78.7 points per game, shooting 44.5% from the field and 33.8% from three-point range. The Golden State Valkyries enter the contest with playoff positioning on the line, sitting in eighth place and just 1.5 games ahead of ninth place. Golden State has been notably balanced this season, with five players averaging double-digit scoring and a team-wide approach that has kept them competitive. The Valkyries have won all three previous matchups against the Mystics this season, including their most recent encounter on August 13th where Veronica Burton scored 30 points. With home court advantage and a 10-7 record at Chase Center, the Valkyries will look to continue their season series dominance and solidify their postseason hopes.
