Mercury buy out Bonner, who will seek title shot
The Mercury and DeWanna Bonner have reached an agreement to buy out her contract. Once she clears waivers, the six-time All-Star will look for a chance to sign as a free agent with a playoff team.
The WNBA landscape just got a whole lot more interesting. DeWanna Bonner, a six-time All-Star and one of the most dominant players in the league, is now a free agent after the Phoenix Mercury and Bonner agreed to a contract buyout. This move has significant implications for teams looking to make a deep playoff run, as Bonner brings a wealth of experience and talent to the table.
Bonner's addition would be a major boost to any team's roster, and her desire to sign with a playoff contender makes her a highly coveted asset. With her ability to score, rebound, and defend at an elite level, Bonner would be a valuable addition to any team looking to make a championship push. The question now is, which team will be able to land her services? The Los Angeles Sparks, Seattle Storm, and Chicago Sky are just a few teams that could benefit from Bonner's presence.
As the WNBA trade deadline approaches, all eyes will be on Bonner's next move. Once she clears waivers, expect a flurry of interest from playoff teams looking to bolster their rosters. Will the Sparks, Storm, or Sky emerge as the frontrunners to sign Bonner, or will another team make a surprise move? One thing is certain: DeWanna Bonner is a game-changer, and her next destination will have a major impact on the WNBA playoff picture.
