Gabby Williams's losing comeback

Yet it was the ideal match for a comeback: the reception of the Mystics, 10th in the WNBA with only 7 victories. Unfortunately for Gabby Williams and her Storm teammates, it went badly… The fault of Brittney Sykes (20 points) who scored the two free throws of the victory (74-72) with one second to go. It's the first time since June that the Mystics have won two games in a row, while the Storm suffer their fourth home defeat.

Washington's bench weighed heavily with 12 points, 9 rebounds and 3 steals for Emily Engstler and 11 points for Shatori Walker-Kimbrough. On the Seattle side, Jewell Loyd scored 16 points, while Nneka Ogwumike took 10 rebounds. As for Gabby Williams, she made a return as a 6th player, but her high activity (4 rebounds, 4 assists and 3 steals) did not compensate for her clumsiness: 3 points on 1 of 5 shooting.

Next match for the Olympic silver medalist, the reception of the Dream on Wednesday evening, another team with a negative record.
