DeWanna Bonner rejoins Phoenix Mercury after signing as a free agent
PHOENIX — DeWanna Bonner has rejoined the Phoenix Mercury, signing as a free agent on Tuesday. She helped the franchise win two WNBA titles in her previous stint with the team which drafted her fifth in 2009. 'We couldn't be more excited to have DeWanna back in a Mercury uniform,' said Mercury GM Nick U'Ren. 'She is a true winner, leader and one of the most talented and versatile players in our game. Her high basketball IQ, shooting range, athleticism and ability to play and defend multiple positions is going to be a great addition to what are we building here in Phoenix.' Bonner spent the first 10 years of her career with the Mercury and helped them win titles in 2009 and 2014. She left for Connecticut and helped the franchise reach the WNBA semifinals for five straight years from 2020-24. The team also made the WNBA Finals in 2022. The 37-year-old Bonner is third all time on the league's scoring list and is a six-time All-Star. She originally signed with Indiana as a free agent to start the year before deciding that the fit wasn't right for her and asking to be waived by the franchise. She'll reunite in Phoenix with her fiancee and former Sun teammate Alyssa Thomas.

The embarrassingly low bonus the WNBA gives its All-Stars
The WNBA All-Star Game isn't exactly lucrative for its participants. Whether they're a starter or reserve, winner or loser, every player in the All-Star Game will receive a bonus of $2,575, according to Front Office Sports. The All-Star Game MVP will earn $5,150 on top that figure. Advertisement 4 Caitlin Clark was the WNBA All-Star Game's top vote getter. Jesse Johnson-Imagn Images 4 WNBA commissioner Cathy Engelbert. NBAE via Getty Images 'There's room for reconstruction,' players association president and 10-time All-Star Nneka Ogwumike said. '[All-Star bonuses] are another component of the salary and compensation in terms of performance bonuses. What we're looking to do is not just have a percentage of a higher salary. We're looking for a revenue share that is reflective across the board for all players. So, as an All-Star, I definitely know, feel, and expect to be able to be rewarded in a much better way.' Advertisement With the viewership surging in the WNBA in the past two seasons, the bonus number seems to be quite low. The NBA, for example, gave bonuses of $125,000 to All-Stars on the winning team at last season's four-team mini-tournament, while runners-up received $50,000 apiece and the players who finished on the third-place and fourth-place teams were awarded $25,000. 4 Ten-time All-Star Nneka Ogwumike is the WNBPA president and has spoken on the low All-Star bonuses. John Jones-Imagn Images A saving grace of All-Star weekend for the WNBA comes in the form of the 3-point contest and the skills challenge, where Aflac has partnered with the players union and will provide much heftier bonuses to the winners of the challenges. Advertisement The winner of the 3-point contest will receive $60,000 from Aflac and the skills challenge winner will take home $55,000. The WNBA will also have $2,575 bonuses for the winners. Aflac's number is even up from last year, as the insurance company pledged $55,000 for each contest a season ago. Atlanta Dream guard Allisha Gray won both competitions last season, receiving $115,150 in total from Aflac and the league — drawing close to what her 2024 WNBA salary was at $185,000. 4 Allisha Gray won both the three-point contest and the skills challenge last season. NBAE via Getty Images Advertisement The $2,575 that the WNBA is giving All-Stars comes in at 2.10 percent of the league-average salary of $117,133, according to The Athletic. In comparison to the male counterparts, the NBA's $125,000 bonuses to winners were 1.35 percent of the $9,191,285 league-average salary. So, the women are technically receiving a better bonus in terms of the percentage of their salaries, but it points to a bigger picture of their earnings as a whole. After opting out of the collective bargaining agreement in October, the players association is in the midst of new CBA negotiations and must reach an agreement by October 31. The WNBA All-Stars have already been announced and now await being chosen to their specific teams, either Team Caitlin Clark or Team Napheesa Collier, who were the top vote-getters for the game.

2025 WNBA Power Rankings (Week 8): Storm surge; Lynx rebound from Commissioner's Cup loss
The Minnesota Lynx may have lost the Commissioner's Cup to the Indiana Fever, but right now, it's them and then every other team. The Seattle Storm are working their way up the rankings, while teams like the Los Angeles Sparks, Chicago Sky and Dallas Wings shuffle spots at the bottom. Between the Commissioner's Cup and All-Star announcements, it was another busy week in the WNBA, and with another week, comes updated power rankings. WNBA Power Rankings These rankings reflect where each WNBA team stands after week eight of the 2025 season. Teams are ranked 1-13 and are grouped by tiers. Past Rankings: Preseason, Week 1, Week 2, Week 3, Week 4, Week 5, Week 6, Week 7 Minnesota Lynx (17-2) | Prior Rank: 1 - The Minnesota Lynx played 4 games last week, which included the 2025 Commissioner's Cup, a game that they loss. But since the Cup doesn't count towards the regular season standings, the Lynx were a perfect 3-0 in week 8, which includes a gritty, come-from-behind win over the Chicago Sky on the second night of a back-to-back. All the Minnesota Lynx do is win, and they were rewarded with two All-Stars, Napheesa Collier and Courtney Williams, as a result. They will also grab the top spot in these power rankings for the third week in a row. COURT IS HEADED TO ALL-STAR. ⭐️ Minnesota Lynx (@minnesotalynx) July 6, 2025 Minnesota Lynx (17-2) | Prior Rank: 1 - The Minnesota Lynx played 4 games last week, which included the 2025 Commissioner's Cup, a game that they loss.

COURT IS HEADED TO ALL-STAR. ⭐️ Phoenix Mercury (13-6) | Prior Rank: 2 - The Mercury will hold on to No. 2 for another week after snapping a two-game losing streak. What's concerning for the Mercury is after just recently becoming whole, both Satou Sabally and Kahleah Copper had to miss their game against the Dallas Wings on Monday due to ankle and hamstring injuries, respectively. Sabally, one of the team's two All-Stars this year, was spotted in a walking boot on Sunday during the team's practice. Phoenix Mercury forward Satou Sabally is in a boot on her right leg. #WNBA Desert Wave Media (@DesertWaveCo) July 6, 2025 Fortunately for the Mercury, their other All-Star is Alyssa Thomas, and with Thomas on the court, the team will always have a chance. She connects everything for the Mercury. She's their best, most important and most valuable player. This marks the 15th time the Phoenix Mercury has had multiple All-Stars in the same season! Greatness isn't new in Phoenix. This Is Mercury Basketball. Phoenix Mercury (@PhoenixMercury) July 6, 2025 Thomas stuffed the stat sheet and notched the 12th triple-double of her career in the Mercury's dominant 102-72 win over the Dallas Wings. Another game, another triple-double for AT 🔄 Alyssa Thomas dropped 15 PTS, 10 REB, 15 AST, & 2 STL to notch her 12th career triple-double vs. the Wings. This also marks her 3rd career game with 15+ PTS and 15+ AST, passing Courtney Vandersloot for most in WNBA history!… WNBA (@WNBA) July 8, 2025 However, her teammate Sami Whitcomb, stole the show with a career-high 36 points and seven made threes on the night. Her 29 points in the first half is the most points scored in a half by a WNBA player this season. Sami Whitcomb was ELECTRIC in her career-high performance vs. Dallas ⚡️ 36 PTS (12-19 FG) 7 3PM (7-11 3PT) 6 REB 2 STL#WelcometotheW WNBA (@WNBA) July 8, 2025 The Mercury have been winning games all season with starters missing from the lineup. This is what they do. They get key contributions from across their team, and based on recent reporting, more help may be on the way. With the second best record in the league, they land the No. 2 spot for the third week in a row. DeWanna Bonner is expected to sign with the Mercury, per @MAVoepel. Bonner would be making a return to Phoenix where she played 10 seasons and won two titles.

Atlanta Dream (12-7) | Prior Rank: 3 - The Dream are 1-1 in their last two home games with a one-point loss to the Seattle Storm and a win over the Golden State Valkyries. The Dream were without Rhyne Howard for their matchup with the Storm, but a familiar foe is why they lost that game. They have not been able to consistently overcome their late game execution issues in close games. Against the the Valkyries on Monday, they did, and it resulted in a win. The Dream and Storm have identical records and they have split their head-to-head matchups this season. The Storm do have the most recent win, but Atlanta was missing one of their two All-Stars, Rhyne Howard (Allisha Gray being the other). More importantly, while Seattle and Atlanta are nearly tied in Defensive Rating (99.7 and 99.9 respectively), the Dream have a better Offensive and overall Net Rating (6.6 as compared to 3.9). For now, that's enough for Atlanta to edge out Seattle for No. 3 this week. Well deserved @howard_rhyne 🥹 Make ATL proud. #DoItForTheDream Atlanta Dream (@AtlantaDream) July 6, 2025 Atlanta Dream (12-7) | Prior Rank: 3 - The Dream are 1-1 in their last two home games with a one-point loss to the Seattle Storm and a win over the Golden State Valkyries.

Well deserved @howard_rhyne 🥹 Make ATL proud. #DoItForTheDream Seattle Storm (12-7) | Prior Rank: 6 - The Seattle Storm bounced back from their blowout loss to the Golden State Valkyries by going 2-0 in week 8. Those two wins came against the shorthanded Atlanta Dream, who were without Rhyne Howard and the New York Liberty who were missing Jonquel Jones. The Storm's record this season against the two teams ranked immediately ahead them is 2-1 versus Phoenix and a 1-1 split with Atlanta. It's worth noting that in their matchups with both the Mercury and Dream, both opponents were missing at least one star player, while Seattle had their three recently named All-Stars (Skylar Diggins, Nneka Ogwumike and Gabby Williams) all available to them. Seattle can only play who is in front of them, but it's important context for assessing how to rank these teams against one another. With that context, Seattle will still move up two spots this week to No. 4, but they won't overtake Atlanta (same record) or Phoenix (one-game lead in the standings ) just yet. this is so cute😭 aysia (@aysiacchanell) July 6, 2025 Seattle Storm (12-7) | Prior Rank: 6 - The Seattle Storm bounced back from their blowout loss to the Golden State Valkyries by going 2-0 in week 8.

Even with the return of Leonie Fiebich to the lineup, the Liberty are losing at a faster rate than they are winning in the last few weeks and that's largely due to the loss of Jonquel Jones, who is not expected to return to play until after the WNBA All-Star break because of a right ankle York is 2-4 in their last six games. In week 8, they went 1-1 with the Los Angeles Sparks and Seattle Storm, and they had to overcome a deficit to beat the Sparks. Fortunately for New York their next six games are at home, where both of their All-Stars, Sabrina Ionescu and Breanna Stewart, typically play very well. Hopefully, they can use home court to their advantage to steady the ship, but with so many losses recently, they fall to fifth this week.

Of their nine wins this season, only two have occurred on the road, both against the Los Angeles Sparks. The Valkyries will likely need their sole All-Star, Kayla Thornton, to go to another level for them on the road because if that trend continues, they could be in for a tough stretch, as they only have two games at home between now and August 3.

Indiana Fever (9-9) | Prior Rank: 8 - The Fever played three games during week 8, which includes a win in the Commissioner's Cup, and went 2-1. Unfortunately for them, the Cup does not count towards standings, so they are still .500 on the season. However, it will be considered for purposes of these rankings. The Fever went into Minnesota, without the services of Caitlin Clark, and beat the best team in the WNBA on their home court. Couple that with finally getting their first win over the Las Vegas Aces since 2020, in dominant fashion, and snapping a 16-game losing streak and that's how they end up ahead of the Aces this week at No. 7. GOT IT DONE 💯#NowYouKnow Indiana Fever (@IndianaFever) July 2, 2025 Also, there is more good news for the Fever. Even though fellow All-Stars, Aliyah Boston and Kelsey Mitchell, have been holding it down for the Fever during her absence, their All-Star Captain, Caitlin Clark, is expected to return to play from a groin injury for their matchup on Wednesday with the Golden State Valkyries.

Las Vegas Aces (9-9) | Prior Rank: 7 - Even though the Aces are still at .500 this week, they fall one spot to eighth after going 1-1 in week 8. While their win in NaLyssa Smith's first game as a starter looked great, it was against the Connecticut Sun, a team with the worst record in the league and only two wins on the season. It also followed one of their worst losses of the season, a 27-point beatdown at the hands of the Indiana Fever. A positive for the Aces is that Smith looked good in her second game while securing a double-double and was moved into the starting lineup after the beating they took from Indiana. Her addition to the team should improve their offense and help to keep defenses honest against the Aces. For now, the Aces get the No. 8 spot this week.

This is who the Sparks have been all season. It's really a toss up between LA, the Chicago Sky and Dallas Wings for spots 10-12 in these rankings. These teams are within a half game of each other, are all playing shorthanded and have kept pace with each other over the course of the season. Since the Sparks have the longest win streak of the three teams at a whopping one game, they will move up two spots to No. 10 this week. Chicago Sky (5-13) | Prior Rank: 10 - The Sky drop one spot this week because they are on a two-game losing streak, but there's no way to ignore the improvement in their play over their last several games, which starts with their sole All-Star this season, Angel Reese. ⭐️2x ALL-STAR BARBIE⭐️ Angel Reese is officially a 2025 WNBA All-Star🤩 Chicago Sky (@chicagosky) July 6, 2025 The Sky are 2-3 in their last five games. Their three losses were all on the road against the Valkyries (by five points), Lynx (by 5 points) and Mystics (by two points).

Dallas Wings (6-14) | Prior Rank: 11 - The Wings are 1-1 in their last two games and if the Sky hadn't beaten them in all of their head-to-head matchups this season, they would have a case to be ranked ahead of them this week. The Wings' most recent loss was a 30-point blowout to the Phoenix Mercury, a team who they had just beaten on their home court while Phoenix was at mostly full strength. So while Dallas is down some key players in Arike Ogunbowale and DiJonai Carrington, losing to the Mercury, albeit on the road, while they were without both Kahleah Copper and Satou Sabally is a bad that loss, the Wings had a very impressive win over Phoenix that was led by their three rookies. Paige Bueckers had already been playing well which is why she's a first-time All-Star and earned Rookie of the Month honors for June.
