The Washington Mystics have made a trade with the Connecticut Sun centered around Aaliyah Edwards and Jacy Sheldon.

The Mystics will also have the right to swap Minnesota's 2026 first-round pick (Washington received following Karlie Samuelson transaction in the offseason) for New York's 2026 first-round pick (Connecticut received following Natasha Cloud transaction in the offseason).

With Jacy Sheldon heading to the Washington Mystics at the WNBA trade deadline, she hopes that she has more freedom than the Sun gave her.
