DeWanna Bonner Expected to Rejoin Phoenix Mercury After Indiana Fever Waiver

News summary

DeWanna Bonner, a 16-year WNBA veteran and two-time champion with the Phoenix Mercury, is expected to rejoin the Mercury after being waived by the Indiana Fever earlier this season. Despite modest stats with the Fever, Bonner brings extensive playoff experience and leadership, which could be pivotal for Phoenix as they aim for the 2025 playoffs. The Mercury, currently strong in the Western Conference, have limited salary cap space and would likely sign Bonner to a veteran minimum contract, possibly requiring a roster move to accommodate her. Bonner's move reunites her with her fiancée, Alyssa Thomas, who was traded to Phoenix from Connecticut. Although Mercury head coach Nate Tibbetts has declined to confirm the signing, multiple credible reports indicate the deal is imminent. Bonner expressed gratitude to the Fever for the opportunity but acknowledged the fit was not ideal, and she looks forward to contributing in Phoenix once again.
