Minnesota hosts Washington after Citron's 22-point showing

Washington visits the Minnesota Lynx after Sonia Citron scored 22 points in the Mystics' 79-71 loss to the Dallas Wings

JULY 2, 2025 • Associated Press

Subpar scoring display in return Sykes delivered six points (3-8 FG, 0-1 3Pt), four rebounds, five assists, and a steal across 26 minutes in Saturday's 79-71 loss to the Wings.

Impact Sykes returned to action this Saturday after missing the Mystics' last two games due to a right leg injury, but she managed to log a decent workload in this contest. Even though this performance was subpar, Sykes has been remarkably consistent on offense all season long, so she should be able to bounce back when the Mystics face the Lynx on Thursday, July 3.

Impact Sykes is at risk of missing a third straight game due to a right leg injury after appearing in 13 of the Mystics' first 14 contests this season. The guard has emerged as a key scoring threat in 2025, posting 19.6 points, 4.8 assists, 4.0 rebounds and 1.2 steals in a career-high 33.3 minutes per game. Jade Melbourne has filled in as a starter the past two games in Sykes' absence, but she's also questionable for Saturday due to a mouth injury.

Ruled out Thursday Sykes (lower leg) has been ruled out for Thursday's game against the Aces.

Impact Sykes was listed as questionable heading into Thursday and participated in shootaround, but she'll ultimately miss a second straight game due to a lower right leg injury. Jade Melbourne, who started in her place Tuesday, is expected to remain in the starting lineup with Sykes unavailable.

Participates in shootaround Sykes (lower leg), who remains questionable for Thursday's game against Las Vegas, participated in the Mystics' morning shootaround, Kareem Copeland of The Washington Post reports.

Impact Sykes was unavailable for Tuesday's game against the Lynx due to a lower right leg injury, and it's not yet clear whether she'll be able to suit up Thursday. While her participation in shootaround was encouraging, the Mystics will presumably monitor her status in the hours leading up to tipoff before determining her status. If Sykes is unable to suit up, Jade Melbourne could draw a second consecutive start.
