Current Sentiment
DeWanna Bonner enters the 2026 season as a respected veteran cornerstone of the Phoenix Mercury, anchored by her six All-Star selections and 16-year track record of two-way reliability. The Mercury's swift re-signing of the 35-year-old forward signals organizational confidence in her continued value as a defensive anchor and locker-room leader, particularly as the team navigates injury management and roster depth. Recent headlines emphasize her milestone achievement of seventh all-time in WNBA steals, cementing her legacy as one of the league's premier perimeter defenders despite modest scoring averages. Media coverage reflects admiration for her longevity and mentorship role with younger players, positioning her as a stabilizing force in Phoenix's championship aspirations rather than a declining veteran. Fan and analyst perception remains solidly positive, viewing Bonner as a proven playoff contributor whose intangibles and defensive prowess justify her continued role in a contending lineup.
