But there are still a few things to iron out over the final week.
With just one week left in the WNBA season, the postseason picture is almost entirely finalized, but there are still a few interesting developments worth watching. While seven of the eight playoff spots have already been clinched, there are still a handful of things left to be decided.
The Mystics picked up a monumental win over the Sky on Wednesday night, blowing them out 89–58 in Chicago to keep themselves alive in the playoff hunt. It was the Sky’s second game since star rookie, and her absence was clearly felt. Reese leads the league with 13.1 rebounds per game. Entering Wednesday night, Chicago had won the rebound battle. But with Reese sidelined, the Mystics held the edge in rebounds, 37–32.
Las Vegas currently sits in fourth place, just one game ahead of Seattle, after both teams won on Wednesday night. They both have four games left to play, including a head-to-head matchup on Sept. 17, the second-to-last gameday of the season. The Aces have won two of the three matchups between them thus far, including a road win in Seattle on July 19, but that was their last meeting and a lot has obviously changed since then.
