IND vs WAS Dream11: The WNBA’s first half has been already competitive and we have seen some brilliant battles already. Who has fallen? Last season Finals Mercury are struggling, Lynx are out of the loop. Who has kept it up? Aces, Sky, and Sun have begun from where they left last season. Then who has improved? In this game, an improved team in Washinton Mystics will clash against still-erratic Indiana Fever.
The Mystics have won six of their nine games but lost their last game against the Sun 71:79. In that game, Elena Della-Donne and Mystics offense collapsed for most parts. On the other hand, the Fever has lost seven of their ten games. In the last game, the Fever did a great job of beating the Sparks 101:96 as Kelsey Mitchell dropped 22 points. So, how can the Fever finally get a string of wins against a formidable opponent?

NBA Projections, Stats & Analysis
Mystics’ defense has been great, Fever still figuring it out
Mystics have done a great job on the defensive end and that has been the major improvement this season. However, despite being this deep into the early parts of the season, they are yet to identify a consistent scorer apart from Elena Delle Donne. Shakira Austin, the rookie Center has had her moments but consistency has been a big issue. Atkins and Cloud also need to get more consistent as scoring options. How can Mystics figure out a rotation that can produce scoring consistency? Will a Cloud-Atkins-Burke-Williams-Austin combination work when Elena is rested?
Kelsey Mitchell has been the backbone of the Fever’s offense again and when she is off, they seem to have no chance of winning the game. The biggest ray of hope has been NaLyssa Smith who provides elite two-way production and is improving at a rapid rate. Victoria Vivians has been impressive as a scorer when starting whereas rookie Queen Egbo has been a solid inside player, however, it has been rookie Emily Engstler who has been also improving at a regular rate too. Danielle Robinson and Destanni Henderson can both be effective.
