The Mercury beat the Sky on Sunday behind Phoenix's highest-scoring first quarter of the season, with Diana Taurasi scoring 12 of 32 points in the quarter.
Caitlin Clark started fast and finished with 29 points and 10 assists while Kelsey Mitchell scored 28 points to help the Indiana Fever fend off a furious second-half rally from the Phoenix Mercury for a critical 98-89 victory on Friday night.
Following standout performances on the world stage at the Paris Olympics from Phoenix Mercury stars Diana Taurasi, Brittney Griner and Kahleah Copper, as well as Suns stars Kevin Durant and Devin Booker, Dan Bickley says Mat Ishbia and fans should be hopeful for a championship in Phoenix.
Team USA's Kahleah Copper scored 10 points in the fourth, and France's Gabby Williams banked in a shot at the buzzer but with a foot on the line, as the U.S. women held on for gold against France.
Brittney Griner says she is “head over heels” that fellow Americans are coming home from Russia, calling it a great day and that she is so happy for the families.
Britney Griner and her U.S. teammates were commuters on Thursday, traveling to a Paris Olympics practice via train. It's a practice the U.S. has done for years so that no one potentially would lose their passport.
