Delle Donne hits late go-ahead 3-pointer to lift Mystics past Sky

Elena Delle Donne scored 25 points, Shakira Austin had 15 points and 11 rebounds and the Washington Mystics beat the Chicago Sky 71-69 on Friday night.

Ariel Atkins rebounded her own miss and found Delle Donne open for a go-ahead 3-pointer with 22.4 to play. Kahleah Copper drove into the lane and was fouled before making 1 of 2 free throws with 10.4 left to get Chicago within 69-67. But Atkins sealed it by making two free throws for a four-point lead.

Natasha Cloud had a team-high seven assists for Washington (2-2), which forced Chicago into 21 turnovers.

The Mystics made 16 of 20 from the free-throw line while Chicago made 9 of 13.

Could this be the dagger??
