Las Vegas Aces vs Washington Mystics Final Score & Over/Under Result — Jul 22, 2026

A'ja Wilson's 38-point eruption powered an offensive surge that proved decisive in the fourth quarter, but it wasn't enough to overcome Washington's resilience in a 100–99 Mystics victory. The game's trajectory turned sharply in the third quarter, where the combined 58 points—the game's highest-scoring frame—signaled both teams' intent to avoid a defensive grind. That explosive third pushed the combined halves to 91 in the first and 108 in the second, setting up a taut final period where Washington's composure in crunch time mattered more than Las Vegas's star power.

Wilson's 38-point, 7-rebound, 5-assist performance exemplified Las Vegas's offensive arsenal, supported by Jackie Young's 24 points, 7 rebounds, and 7 assists and Chelsea Gray's 19 points and 4 assists. Yet Shakira Austin's 25 points, 6 rebounds, and 3 assists anchored Washington's answer, alongside Sonia Citron's 20 points and 8 assists. The combined 199 points soared well above the 164.5 market total, clearing the OVER by 34.5. DAGGER leaned over, and it cashed decisively. The Las Vegas offense, averaging 91.1 points per game over its last ten, matched its form, but Washington's defensive profile—allowing 77.9 per game recently—fractured under sustained pressure, allowing the total to balloon across all four quarters.
