INDIANAPOLIS (AP) — Elena Delle Donne scored 24 points to help the Washington Mystics beat the Indiana Fever 82-70.

Indiana (5-29) closes the regular season on Sunday against the Mystics, trying to snap a 17-game losing streak.

Elizabeth Williams added 10 points for Washington. Emily Engstler made all six of her field-goal attempts and scored a career-high 18 points for Indiana.
