Keep An Eye on: 

Rhyne Howard: who was hot like no other in the Dreams most recent game, a convincing win over the Chicago Sky 88-70. Howard, finished with a season high 36 points, thanks, to a career high NINE 3-pointers. Howard has struggled shooting from deep this season, shooting 29 percent, which is below her career average of 33.7 percent, yet, she's fully capable of heating up at any time. She's also attempting a career high 10.7 three pointers per game, which is tops in the WNBA. Yes, the Dream have a lot of threats up and down their roster, that warrant SPECIAL attention on the scouting report, but. the versatile Howard is the one fresh off a near 40 point outing, fully confident and will obviously have plans to continue her scoring rampage

Limiting Turnovers: is vital for the Mystics game in and game out. They've been an achilles heel for Washington and have been the cause for a few of their losses. Washington is currently 10th in the WNBA in turnovers per game (15.1) and 9th in total turnovers (151). The good news is, Atlanta is dead last in points off turnovers, only scoring 11.5 points off opponents turnovers. The bad news is Washington, allows 15.2 points per game, off their turnovers. The Dream is already tough to handle as is with the plethora of weapons they have at their disposal, Washington can't afford to help the Dream by beating themselves, being sloppy with the ball.
