Impact The right wrist injury is a new issue for Edwards, who hasn't missed a contest since the May 23 loss in Las Vegas.

Productive off bench Edwards had nine points (3-4 FG, 3-6 FT) and three rebounds over 12 minutes during Sunday's 74-69 win over the Storm.

Impact Although her workloads have been relatively low, Edwards is trending up for the Mystics. Over her last four appearances, she's posting averages of 8.8 points, 4.5 rebounds and 0.8 blocks in 15.8 minutes per contest. She's worth keeping a close eye on in fantasy formats.

Linked to move elsewhere The Mystics are engaged in trade conversations to find second-year forward Aaliyah Edwards a new home, Kendra Andrews and Alexa Philippou of ESPN report.

Impact Andrews and Philippou report that "multiple teams have reached out to the Mystics" and that Washington is taking their calls. After playing a significant role in 2024, Edwards' role has diminished in 2025 -- she holds averages of 4.9 points and 3.3 rebounds in just 13.1 minutes per contest. The trade deadline isn't until Aug. 7, so there's plenty of time for the Mystics to find Edwards a new home.

Muted role off bench Edwards closed with zero points (0-1 FG), one rebound, one assist and one steal in 18 minutes during Sunday's 91-88 win over Dallas.

Impact It was the first time this season Edwards was held scoreless, although she hasn't played a particularly prominent role for Washington in 2025. She's come off the bench in each of her 10 appearances so far this year, with Edwards having hit double digits in scoring just one time. As long as Kiki Iriafen is healthy, Edwards could have a hard time finding consistent production from the second unit.

Inefficient in loss Edwards closed with five points (1-7 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 3-4 FT), three rebounds and one steal across 17 minutes during Sunday's 89-56 loss to the Dream.

Pinpoint off bench in victory Edwards accumulated 13 points (5-8 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 3-5 FT), seven rebounds, one assist and one steal across 20 minutes during Sunday's 104-67 win over the Sun.

Impact Edwards was sharp from the field, missing just three times in her eight attempts in 20 minutes off the bench, posting a season high in points, and her seven rebounds tied a season best. She is still averaging just 5.5 points and 4.2 rebounds per game, which is a far cry from last season's 7.6 points and 5.6 rebounds per game. Her minutes are also down, and she has yet to start, which is contributing to the downturn.
