Mystics at Fever Sunday — playoff push at Gainbridge

Next tip: Indiana

The Washington Mystics play the Indiana Fever on Sunday, Sep. 20, tip listed at 4 p.m. ET at Gainbridge Fieldhouse (NBA TV / Monumental Sports Network listings). Confirm tip and TV on the club board before tipoff.

Washington is 25-16 after Thursday’s 110-80 win at Chicago (blowout desk).

Why it matters

The Mystics are in the late-season playoff queue. The first round of the WNBA playoffs is listed to begin Sep. 27. This is a road stop against a Fever club that draws national TV attention — keep the box honest and skip invented injury or lineup calls until the club posts them.
