Washington Mystics (6-18) and Phoenix Mercury (12-12) will meet on Tuesday morning in DC. The Mystics have been inconsistent so far, leaving them bottom of the Eastern Conference. They battled hard last weekend before losing to the Aces 77-89 at the Entertainment and Sports Arena. This result condemned them to their third straight loss at home. The Mystics have won just three games at home this season. As for the Mercury, this matchup gives them a chance to end their two-game skid. They were victims of a one-sided loss against the in-form Sun last weekend. Before that, they lost 95-86 to Indiana Fever, marking their second straight loss on the road. A win on Tuesday morning can help them surpass the .500 mark and get back into the conference race. They are 4.5 games behind the Aces and the Lynx.
