Dallas Wings vs Washington Mystics predicted starting lineups and depth charts for June 22 | 2025 WNBA Season

The Dallas Wings will travel to the capital on Sunday to face the Washington Mystics at the Care First Arena. This inter-conference game will serve as the first meeting between the two teams this season.

In their last game, the Mystics suffered a heartbreaking defeat to the Atlanta Dream, losing 92-91. The one-point upset left them with a record of two losses and a win in their last three games as they continue to struggle for consistency.

Meanwhile, the Dallas Wings have started to find their footing as they recorded their first back-to-back win of the season with an 86-83 win in Connecticut. Before their game against the Sun, the Wings defeated the Valkyries at home, with Bueckers recording 20+ points in both games.

This game between Dallas and Washington will also see the early contenders for rookie of the season going head-to-head. Kiki Iriafen and Paige Buekcers have been the brightest prospects of the 2025 WNBA Draft and will face each other for the first time.

Iriafen currently leads the early ROTY rankings with 13.0 points and 8.8 rebounds per game, but Bueckers is quickly catching up, having played three games fewer. The Dallas guard is currently averaging 18.0 points and 5.8 assists per game, making this game an enticing prospect.

Apart from the individual battles, both teams will be looking to climb up the standings. The Mystics (5-8) are currently placed 9th, while the Wings (3-11) are looking to ascend further after climbing to 12th place in their last game.
