Mystics vs Sky Preview: Washington finish season against Chicago

And it comes down to this. The final game of the season is upon us, as the Mystics are looking to continue the momentum they have built since coming back from the FIBA Tournament. Winners of three straight games, the Mystics' win over the Sun on Tuesday night marked the franchise mark for most wins in a season, at 27 wins. Don't let that get in the way of what should be an interesting night in the "W".

At stake for Thursday's game is the potential to move up as far as the 5th playoff spot, and lock in a 1st round matchup against the Atlanta Dream , but the Mystics will need some help. A combination of beating the Chicago Sky and the Minnesota Lynx beating the Indiana Fever , will allow the Mystics to move up to the 5th playoff spot.

On the other side, Chicago has been dealing with a great deal of injuries. This game is an opportunity for their team to play spoiler and stop the Mystics' momentum going into the playoffs.
