In a trade that’s paying off big for the Washington Mystics, they acquired the 6’1” guard Sonia Citron, while also holding the fourth overall pick, which they used to select 6’4” forward Kiki Iriafen. Both players are shaping up to be two of the top talents from this draft class and are making the Mystics look like the real winners of the deal.
In her most recent outing, Citron poured in 19 points, five rebounds and three assists, hitting six of 11 from the field and four of six from beyond the arc.
