Winless Washington isn't doing anything right, #10 in the WNBA in points scored, #11 in points allowed. They also had to play last night in a 97-67 home loss to the L.A. Sparks. With veteran guard Ivory Latta (knee) yet to play and Tierra Ruffin-Pratt and Ally Malott both easing their way back into form from early injuries, Washington has struggled to be competitive. After dropping the first two by a combined 21 points, the Mystics committed 21 turnovers and allowed Los Angeles to shoot 56.1 percent in Friday's 30-point defeat. Connecticut is rested, not having played since Thursday in a 72-68 win at San Antonio. This is the home opener for Connecticut, so look for a one-sided rout by the home team. Take Connecticut.
