The Dallas Wings (1-2) host the Washington Mystics (2-1) in a WNBA 2026 matchup on Monday, May 18, at College Park Center.

Dallas comes into this game in rough shape. The Wings have lost both home games this season, having been defeated by the Atlanta Dream and the Minnesota Lynx. 

In that 90-86 loss to the Lynx, the Wings actually started out great, building a 10-point lead after the opening quarter. But their offense sputtered in the next three quarters, as they struggled to hit efficiently from the three-point line. 

Paige Bueckers led the Wings with her 27 points and 8 assists. Bueckers, now in her second year in the league, is averaging 20.7 points on 57.1% shooting, including 54.5% from beyond the arc.

As for the Mystics, they have won two of their first three games. Recently, they hacked out a 104-102 overtime victory over the Indiana Fever. Four of the Mystics starters scored in double digits, with Sonia Citron's 30 points and Kiki Iriafen's 25 leading the way.

Citron, now also in her sophomore year, is putting up efficient numbers of her own. She's putting up 24.3 points on 60.5% shooting from the field.

Our Dallas Wings vs Washington Mystics Prediction

Paige Bueckers and the Wings are favored by oddsmakers on Monday, but this team has lost both games at home early this season. They're still finding their footing, which the Mystics can take advantage of.

The Mystics have been drawing good surprises so far, especially with Sonia Citron heating up. If Citron and company can keep this good offense humming, look for them to get close against the Wings. Our prediction for the Dallas Wings vs Washington Mystics match is: Mystics (+4.5) cover the spread.
