Washington Mystics vs Dallas Wings Prediction & Picks - WNBA

Prediction published on 8/10/25, 12:11 PM  by Erik Gibbs | Modified on 8/10/25 at 6:10 PM in WNBA Picks

The Dallas Wings and Washington Mystics will meet today in a matchup of two teams looking to snap out of recent slumps. The Wings have endured a challenging season, entering this August 10 home game with an 8–23 record and sitting near the bottom of the WNBA standings. They’ve dropped three straight at College Park Center and have won only twice in their last 10 contests.

While Dallas often shows stretches of competitive play, defensive lapses and late-game struggles have repeatedly undermined their efforts. Allowing about 86.5 points per game — one of the highest marks in the league — has frequently offset their respectable scoring output of roughly 81–82 points. In their most recent home outing, they faded in the fourth quarter of a close contest, extending their skid. With the postseason out of realistic reach, the Wings are now focused on building momentum to finish the season strong.

The Mystics, at 13–17, are still in the playoff hunt but have stumbled of late, going 3–7 in their last 10 games and riding a four-game losing streak. Washington started the season on more solid footing, but injuries and inconsistency have hurt their momentum. Road games have been especially problematic, with a 4–11 away record and a tendency to lose the rebounding battle in key moments.

This is the third meeting of the season between these teams, with the series tied 1-1. Washington edged Dallas 91-88 in a high-scoring affair in June, but a week later, the Wings responded with a 79-71 road victory built on strong defensive play.
