WASHINGTON (AP) — Sonia Citron scored 21 points, Kiki Iriafen had 16 points and 15 rebounds, and the playoff-bound Washington Mystics beat the Chicago Sky 101-93 in their regular-season finale on Thursday night.
Washington (27-17) earned the No. 5 seed and a first-round matchup with fourth-seeded Atlanta when the playoffs open Sunday. Indiana (27-17) fell to No. 6 after losing the season series with the Mystics and will play No. 3 seed and defending champion Las Vegas in the best-of-three opening round.
Chicago (16-28) fell behind quickly and trailed by 25 in the fourth quarter before getting within 95-91 on Courtney Vandersloot's four-point play and layup with a minute left. Citron ended the threat when she fed Iriafen for a bucket with 39 seconds to play.
