[URL='https://wapo.st/3wsbzJB']Brittney Sykes just had her best season. Now the Mystics need even more.[/URL]

"Anyone who has spent time [URL='https://www.washingtonpost.com/sports/2023/08/03/natasha-cloud-brittney-sykes-mystics/?itid=lk_inline_manual_5']with the eight-year veteran nicknamed “Slim”[/URL] knows she isn’t exactly shy with her thoughts. The passion is right there on her sleeve, and sometimes it boils over. And that’s what the organization wanted her to work on. Sykes quickly had an influential voice in the locker room and on the floor after she signed as a free agent in 2023, but that influence was going to grow in 2024. This is [URL='https://www.washingtonpost.com/sports/2024/04/29/mystics-training-camp/?itid=lk_inline_manual_5']a transitional season for the Mystics[/URL], who retooled the roster and said goodbye to longtime [URL='https://www.washingtonpost.com/sports/2024/02/01/mystics-free-agency-natasha-cloud/?itid=lk_inline_manual_5']starting point guard Natasha Cloud[/URL] and [URL='https://www.washingtonpost.com/sports/2024/02/07/mystics-elena-delle-donne-sitting-out/?itid=lk_inline_manual_5']two-time MVP Elena Delle Donne[/URL].

The Mystics need Sykes to be even more of a leader, especially with a positional tweak. She had the ball in her hands plenty last season, but Cloud was the unquestioned starting point guard who had led the league in assists the previous year."
