PREVIEW: The Washington Mystics will look to extend their three-game winning streak when they visit the Los Angeles Sparks at Crypto.com Arena on Tuesday night. Sitting seventh in the league standings with an 11-10 record, the Mystics have demonstrated considerable stability, securing seven victories in their last ten games. Washington's offensive approach is particularly noteworthy, combining long-range shooting with paint dominance and boasting the highest three-point shooting percentage in the league over the past five games. Defensively, the Mystics rank impressively, placing 6th in points allowed at 79.5 per contest and standing 4th in opponent shooting percentage, limiting teams to 41.8% overall and an exceptional 29.8% from three-point territory. The Los Angeles Sparks are navigating a challenging season, having won just 5 out of 16 games and currently positioned in eleventh place. While they rank sixth in scoring with 82.0 points per game and shoot 44.5% overall, their defense allows opponents to shoot 45.2% from the field. Led by Kelsey Plum, who averages 20.1 points, 5.8 assists, and 1.4 steals per game, the Sparks have a dynamic offensive threat. The Sparks will be without forward Cameron Brink, who is out with a knee injury, adding another layer of complexity to their matchup against Washington.
