Washington Mystics vs Atlanta Dream 9/13/20 - WNBA Picks & Predictions

Last Updated: 09/13/2020 at 12:31 PM ET

The Washington Mystics complete a back-to-back on Sunday when playing the Atlanta Dream after playing the New York Liberty on Saturday. Washington is currently in eighth place in the WNBA standings and needs a victory on Saturday before facing Atlanta in order to maintain its position in the final playoff spot. Washington has won two straight following its 80-72 victory on Thursday over the Los Angeles Sparks and is doing this without three of its top players Elena Delle Donne, Tina Charles and Aerial Powers.

Misha Hines-Allen is leading Washington in scoring and rebounding with averages of 16.7 points and 8.7 rebounds per game. Hines-Allen is shooting 50.9% from the floor and 78.3% from the free throw line. Leilani Mitchell is the leader in assists for Washington with an average of 5.5 per game. The Mystics have four players, of which three are active, averaging double figures in scoring.

Atlanta looks for its third consecutive victory and a possible trip to the postseason with a win on Sunday over Washington. Atlanta improved to 7-14 following its 82-75 victory on Friday over the Connecticut Sun. Chennedy Carter was the leading scorer for Atlanta with 22 points while Courtney Williams scored 20 points and pulled down nine rebounds. Three teams - Washington, Atlanta and Dallas are without a ½ game of one another and Washington has two games to play while the others have just one.

Chennedy Carter is leading Atlanta in scoring with an average of 16.9 points per game hitting 46.5% of her field goals and 81.5% of her free throws. Betnijah Laney is the second leading scorer and leader in assists with averages of 16.7 points and 4.1 assists per game. Monique Billings is the leading rebounder for Atlanta with an average of 8.5 per game.

Both Washington and Atlanta are in a battle with Dallas for the eighth and final playoff spot in the WNBA. The Mystics have the advantage with two games remaining - one on Saturday and the final on Sunday - and with two victories Washington would clinch the final spot. However the Mystics are shorthanded without three of their top players and playing back-to-back will come up short both straight up and against the spread versus Atlanta. Final Score Prediction, Atlanta Dream wins and covers ATS 88-81
