Stefanie Dolson · Turning to a commonly-used “dad line” in describing his team’s offense over the first three quarters against the L.A. Sparks, the Washington Mystics’ head coach determined that he wasn’t quite yet mad, only disappointed. Faced with the improbable odds of a final-quarter, 14-point deficit to slice into, Stefanie Dolson and the Mystics got to work on introducing a similar word into the fray: “upset.” Entirely in-sync with her takeover-bound teammate throughout the comeback charge, Dolson prepares for an encore, putting Rickea Jackson through a physically-imposing pick-and-roll to the rim before muscling through contact for an and-one finish. Dolson’s crunchtime heroics helped Washington snag a three-point lead in the game’s final minute-and-a-half, setting their path for a resilient, signature win on July 2, 2024. For Dolson, it extended a remarkable stretch, marking her sixth-consecutive game with double-digit scoring, as the two-time All-Star contributed 10 points (on four-of-six shooting), eight boards, four assists, and one 3-pointer. · State of Mint
