Both teams have found their groove
The Sun has done a great job to begin the season and reigning MVP Jonquel Jones has had ample help around him. Alyssa Thomas been an all-around threat whereas DeWanna Bonner brings tremendous defense and also quick offense to the plate. The play of Natisha Hiedeman has been especially impressive whereas Courtney Williams will be crucial as a quick pull-up shooter. Brionna Jones, DiJonai Carrington and Yvonne Anderson form a strong bench. The Sun look locked in on both ends of the floor.
Ona the other hand, the Mystics have also identified different aces through different games.

Natasha Cloud and Ariel Atkins form a strong Guard duo whereas rookie Shakira Austin has earned a starting spot through her strong inside game.
