Summary
Washington handed Indiana a 93-77 home loss with playoff positioning at stake, leaving the Fever one game behind Atlanta in the race for the No. 4 seed.
A 51-30 halftime deficit set the tone after Indiana opened 0-for-7 from 3-point range, and the Mystics pushed the lead to as many as 26.
Caitlin Clark scored 25 points with five assists and five turnovers, while she and Kelsey Mitchell combined for 47 of Indiana's 77 points.
The defeat erased momentum from Indiana's 18-point post-FIBA-break win over Toronto and raises the stakes ahead of two games against league-leading Minnesota.
