Our Washington Mystics vs Golden State Valkyries Prediction
The inaugural season for the Valkyries could be a long one as they got crushed in their opening game and now face a Mystics team that looks to be much improved from last season.
Washington already has been getting a ton of production from their rookies, notably Kiki Iriafen, who is averaging 15.5 points per game and Sonia Citron, who is averaging 17.0 points per game.
This does not even include Georgia Amoore, who is another one of their rookies that is expected to produce solid numbers. Amoore has yet to appear in a game this season due to an injury, but her status for this matchup is a game-time decision.
Even if Amoore is unable to make her season debut, the Mystics have already shown they could be one of the highest scoring teams in the league this season, while the Valkyries struggled to find consistent scoring in their season opener.
With Washington’s confidence level increasing by the day, our Washington Mystics vs Golden State Valkyries prediction is: Washington Mystics -5.5.Jackpot Pools
