Game Notes and More

• The Dream are a surprising 8-4 behind a career year from Allisha Gray. Gray is averaging 20.4 points per game, good for sixth-best in the NBA.
• Gray is one spot behind Washington’s Brittney Sykes on the scoring leaderboard. Sykes’ 20.5 points per game game mark is by far a career high.
• The Mystics are 5-7 and sitting in playoff positioning at the moment. It would be quite difficult for them not to make the playoffs this season given how putrid the Chicago Sky, Connecticut Sun and Dallas Wings have all been. Those three teams are a combined 7-29.
• Kiki Iriafen will likely miss out on Rookie of the Year honors to Paige Bueckers, but she is well deserving of the honor and has a chance to crack the All-Star team this season.
