Episode Details

The Connecticut Sun snapped a winless streak with a gritty 68-57 victory over the Washington Mystics, fueled by standout performances from Olivia Nelson-Ododa and Leila Lacan, who each scored 12, while Kennedy Burke added 11 off the bench. Nelson-Ododa also grabbed nine rebounds and Lacan contributed four steals. The Mystics struggled mightily from the field (35%) and in the paint, surrendering 16 more points inside than they scored. Georgia Amoore led Washington with 14 points, while Sonia Citron and Kiki Iriafen added 11 each. This marks the Sun’s first back-to-back wins of the season — a promising sign as they look to build momentum. Washington’s head coach missed the game due to illness, with the associate head coach stepping in. The Mystics aim to rebound at home against Portland on Sunday, while the Sun host the Dallas Wings this Thursday.
