What happened: The Washington Mystics' Assist DC program generated a $90 donation following the team's June 2 game against the Chicago Sky, in which Washington recorded 18 total assists. Under the program, every assist made this season triggers a $5 donation on behalf of ID Technologies.
Why it matters: The initiative ties on-court ball movement directly to community giving, turning a routine box-score stat into local impact. Assist-driven charity drives like this deepen the franchise's footprint in the D.C. area across the 2026 season.
By the numbers: June 2 vs. Chicago Sky: 18 team assists at $5 per assist for a $90 donation through the Assist DC program, benefiting causes on behalf of ID Technologies.
What to watch: The donation total will continue to grow with every assist the Mystics record across the remainder of the 2026 regular season.
