The Daily Swish: Becky Hammon is retiring!!!!

Wednesday provided us plenty of news. Here are some links for you to peruse.

Final Scores from Wednesday

• The Washington Mystics defeated the Connecticut Sun, 89-75 thanks to a big fourth quarter run which broke the game wide open. Ivory Latta led all scorers with 23 points on 9-of-14 shooting with five of those made shots from three. With this win, the Mystics are still undefeated against the Sun and the Shock, the other two teams with rosters that are just as young. In addition, they have now won four of their last five games. Here's a recap from Gene Wang of the Washington Post.
• Here's Ivory Latta's shot chart during Wednesday's game:

• Here's Mike Thibault's postgame video presser from Monumental Network on the Mystics' win. Always something we like to watch after every game.
• The L.A. Sparks missed a three and a putback at the buzzer in a 66-64 loss to the New York Liberty last night, spoiling interim coach Penny Toler's coaching debut for the Sparks at Staples Center. The Sparks were playing without star Candace Parker, who was announced out with a knee sprain just a few days after playing in the 2014 WNBA All-Star game.
  
• Tina Charles, who scored 31 in last night's Liberty win, was also the subject of a feature story by Jonathan Zeller of NYC GO who described her transition from the Connecticut Sun to the Liberty. The story went all the way back to her childhood as the daughter of a season ticket holder up to the present where Charles hopes to bring a basketball championship to New York for the first time in over four decades.
