In August, Las Vegas is averaging a league-high 91.4 points per game while their 38.0% three-point percentage has been the league's second-best. That efficiency from long-range should continue in this matchup as teams have converted 41.4% of their threes against the Mystics this month. Washington has a bottom-four 106.3 defensive rating over their last 10 games.

The Liberty's 102.4 defensive rating in June and July has jumped to a league-best 94.0 in August, and Breanna Stewart has greatly contributed to that progress. This month, Stewart has averaged a league-high 2.4 blocks per game and a team-high 2.0 steals per game. Over the last 10 outings, the Lynx have committed the second-most turnovers per game (15.2), and Diamond Miller's 5.8 turnovers per 100 possessions have been the ninth-most league-wide.
