Quote:
Bonner: “I am so happy to announce that I’m expecting. I have always wanted a family and I have looked forward to this chapter of my life. While I am disappointed to miss the 2017 season with my Mercury family, this was the right decision for me right now. Don’t worry, X-Factor, I will still be around this summer, and I will be back and better than ever in 2018!”


Congratulations DB and CanDu!

Will her core designation automatically transfer to next season?

Since DeWanna is so skinny, will pregnancy weight simply make her look normal? Smile Also, any team that still wants to trade for Bonner will now have to include a draft pick to account for the baby. Wink

Congratulations to both.

No, they would have to core her again. However, since she isn't playing as a core player the number of times she can be cored will not change.

A##hat at WNBA fan page says he broke the news, but not really because he wanted to protect their privacy Rolling Eyes I am going to credit Huskie who said it right here, even though I know she didn;t have insider info lol. Some rumors do pan out

Hopefully this news being official now ends all that nonsense about the Mercury being a contender this season.

Congrats DeWanna! Smile

Why is Bonner saying that she will be in Phoenix this summer if she can't play and her spouse is in Indiana?

Might as well hang with the team if you're getting paid.

Barfcoff is so full of shit. When he's first to post something he accuses everyone else of ripping him off, but today he said that people who posted this before him are losers who have nothing better to do than follow the league all day long. And the way he talks about every player being his close personal friend is so pathetic and lame.

Congratulations to DeWanna and her spouse. I enjoyed the way she played basketball and I will miss her playing this year.

As much as I love Dupree, Little will bring defense. It is losing Bonner to pregnancy that compounds the loss of the retiring Taylor. However, I still believe the Mercury will be rather competitive.

Have never been a fan of the guy. His nastiness negates any positive promotion of the league.

Little is a better player at this point. I've always thought she was underrated.

No she's not, at least not with CT the past two seasons. She does play somewhat ok defense, but her efficiency while on the court has been terrible the past 2 years.
