The Portland Fire and Washington Mystics are set for a rematch Thursday night, just weeks after their jaw-dropping four-overtime thriller — a one-point Mystics win that shook the league. Washington enters as a 5.5-point favorite, riding a seven-game winning streak and boasting the sixth-best net rating in the league over their last 10 games. Their elite defense ranks third in the NBA, and they’re peaking at the right time — while Portland struggles on the road (4-8 away) and has fallen out of playoff contention. Kiki Iriafen is a key player to watch, averaging double-doubles with a rebounding surge. With momentum, home-court advantage, and a proven ability to win tight games, the Mystics look poised to cover the spread and keep the fireworks flying.
