Delle Donne Dominates as Mystics Roll Over Aces 95-72

Elena Delle Donne scored a game-high 29 points and pulled down 11 boards as the visiting Washington Mystics cruised past the Las Vegas Aces 95-72 on Thursday night in front of over 4,400 at the Mandalay Bay Events Center.

Three other Mystics scored in double figures, with Ariel Atkins putting in 19, Tianna Hawkins off the bench with 15 and Kristi Toliver with 13.

The win lifts the Mystics to 6-3 on the season, good enough for third place behind league leading Connecticut and the Chicago Sky.

Delle Donne dominated right from the start, scoring 10 of Washington’s first 21 points and ending the half with 16.

The Mystics travel to Atlanta for their next game as they take on the the Dream on Sunday at 1pm.
