Mystics advance in the playoffs for the first time since 2002

The Mystics defeated the Wings 86-76 in the first round of the playoffs at Capital One Arena. They also advanced to the second round of the playoffs for the first time since 2002 and won their first home playoff game since 2004.

Elena Delle Donne scored 25 points and grabbed 11 rebounds while Emma Meesseman also added 16 points and grabbed 10 rebounds.

I am in shock that this happened. I shouldn’t be shocked because of the offseason moves and the development of this team’s young core, but I am shocked in a good way. Feel free to react here.
