Washington Mystics coach Mike Thibault had a simple formula for muting the Las Vegas Aces’ high-scoring offense Tuesday night.

Washington followed his advice, allowing no fast-break points and limiting Las Vegas to 40.6 percent field goal shooting in an 83-73 win that polished off a 3-0 season series sweep.

Now the Mystics (20-12) face an even bigger challenge Friday night on the road against the Chicago Sky (23-8): Keep the league’s best team in check after it sustained an unexpected home loss Tuesday night to Dallas.

Chicago could have opened up a two-game lead on the Aces for the No. 1 seed in the WNBA playoffs, but instead fell 84-78 to a Wings team scrapping to earn a playoff spot. The Sky were just sloppy enough (16 turnovers) and missed eight free throws, which led them to lose against an opponent that went 21-of-25 at the line and stole the ball a dozen times.
