Washington Mystics aim to extend winning streak against Dallas Wings

The Washington Mystics host the Dallas Wings on August 5, 2026, at CareFirst Arena in Washington, D.C. The Mystics (16‑12) enter the game on a season‑best four‑game winning streak, while the Wings (19‑11) look to bounce back after a recent 83‑63 victory over the Connecticut Sun.

In the previous meeting on July 31, Washington won 81‑75, led by Shakira Austin’s 28 points and 10 rebounds and Kiki Iriafen’s 22 points and nine boards. Sonia Citron added 16 points on perfect free‑throw shooting. Dallas relies on Jessica Shepard’s breakout season, averaging a league‑leading 11.8 rebounds per game, and Arike Ogunbowale’s 14.9 points per game.

Both teams are vying for playoff positioning, with the Mystics holding a five‑game cushion for the eighth seed and the Wings seeking to close the gap in the Western Conference race.
