What to look for

This is pretty simple. If the Mystics win, they will make their first WNBA Finals in franchise history. They also will no longer be the only WNBA team without a Finals appearance. Lose and there will be plenty of skeptical D.C. sports fans who think that the franchise is cursed.

Let’s get a win tomorrow.
