She needs to come in and be a part of us and win a championship her<\/p>\n<p>In the meantime, Dallas will face Washington for the second time in three games Tuesday. The Wings overcame a 15-point first-half deficit last Friday in the nation\u2019s capital to win 94-86.<\/p>\n<p>Arike Ogunbowale had a game-high 27 points, including 19 points in the second quarter, as the Mystics defense struggled to contain the fourth-year guard.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe expect that from her,\u201d Johnson said Friday. \u201cWe know teams are going to come at her with different defenses, double-teams and traps. But she just needs to take her time, trust her teammates, move the basketball and it will come back to her.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><strong>For More News And Analysis About <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/gambia\">Gambia<\/a> Follow <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/\">Africa-Press<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; Gambia.
