Atlanta Dream vs. Washington Mystics Prediction

I’m on the Mystics and the points here. Maybe the long layoff helped Atlanta get their minds right afterthis recent slump, but the Mystics have been a team that lately steps up and competes against the good teams and plays down to bad teams and I think the Mystics are live in this game. I’ll take my shot on Washington and the points here.

Chris Ruffolo's Pick: Washington +6.5
