Ariel was the Player of the Game last night in Washington's 81-52 drubbing of Los Angeles in Candace Parker's first game of the regular season. Ariel scored a game high 22 points on 7/13 shooting (5/8 from 3, 3/4 FT). She could've recorded a new career high (26) but missed a couple of close/mid-range shots we've all seen her hit regularly but was on fire from beyond the arc.
The Mystics committed an uncharacteristic 18 turnovers but that was 9 less than the Sparks' 27. Two Washington bench players accounted for 10 of the 18. Candace Parker looked very rusty in her first action since the opening preseason game shooting 1/9 and turning the ball over 6 times herself.
