Richie Adubato Resigns as Mystics Head Coach

As reported by the Washington Post's Marc Carig and washingtonpost.com D.C. Sports Bog writer Dan Steinberg, Mystics coach Richie Adubato resigned this afternoon.

Mystics assistant Tree Rollins takes over at the helm of a team which has started 0-4 this year, with losses thus far to Connecticut, Sacramento, New York and Detroit.

The team also announced that forward Crystal Robinson has retired and will take a position with the coaching staff.

I just spoke with Mel, who reports being "surprised."

"That does come as a sudden, quick decision," he added.

I am sure he will have more to say about this later.
