Atlanta won the first two meetings this season and then Washington broke through with an 86-71 road win over the Dream on July 31. This will be the Dream's toughest test since its star player, Angel McCoughtry, suffered a foot injury that put her out for the season. Atlanta hasn't played since last Sunday, while the Mystics blew out Los Angeles 96-64 on Thursday to advance to the Semifinals. The Mystics had six scorers in double figures and set a franchise record for largest margin of victory in a playoff game. The Sparks were held to 34.3 percent shooting while Washington shot a blistering 56.9 percent from the field, and Elena Delle Donne led all scorers with 19 points while pulling down 12 rebounds. The Mystics are 7-2 ATS their last nine games, 4-1 ATS their last five road contests, and they are 3-1-1 ATS the last five meetings at Atlanta. Take the Washington Mystics.
