Washington has dropped back-to-back games and sits seventh in the WNBA standings with seven games to go.
The Mystics had scrapped to a 28-21 lead in the second quarter, but the Sun closed the half on a 15-3 run. Then Connecticut opened the second half with a 9-0 surge for a 14-point lead. Washington never led again, but it forged a tie at 63 with 1:54 to go. That was as good as it got, even though Washington held the Sun to 10 fourth-quarter points.
Cloud led the Mystics with 19 points and five assists; she moved into eighth place on the franchise scoring list with 1,929 points, surpassing Nikki McCray-Penson . Shakira Austin added 13 points and seven rebounds; they were the only Mystics in double figures. Washington had 20 turnovers and shot 35.5 percent.
