    Why The Phoenix Mercury’s 1-1 Start Is MORE Encouraging Than It Looks

    The Phoenix Mercury are 1-1 to open the season, but the context around that start matters. The Mercury open the year with the second-hardest opening schedule in the WNBA, including the team’s only back-to-back of the entire season, and still showed flashes of what this group can become.   Erika, Stephen and Girl break down the Mercury’s ugly first half against the Valkyries, the second-half comeback attempt that cut the game to one possession, and why there are still plenty of encouraging signs despite the loss.   Plus, Alyssa Thomas continues to drive nearly everything offensively for Phoenix, Jovana Nogic stays red-hot from three, and the Mercury still haven’t fully unlocked the best version of Kahleah Copper yet.   The Mercury home opener is next, and Phoenix still looks like a team with another level waiting to be unlocked.   Welcome to PHNX Mercury, where we make it more fun to be a Mercury fan!   0:00 - Catching up on the loss to GSV   10:00 - Possession game cost the Merc 16:00 - SPG's notes on Veronica Burton and the GSV matchup 19:00 - Mack rebounding impact 30:00 - Alyssa Thomas is amazing (still) 44:00 - Trading for Cam Brink? 46:00 - Jovana Nogic is MORE than a shooter 50:30 - Predictions for Minnesota Lynx game   JOIN THE SUPPORTERS CLUB ➡️ https://tinyurl.com/yc6km2r4   An ALLCITY Network Production   SUBSCRIBE to our YouTube: https://bit.ly/phnx_youtube   ALL THINGS PHNX: http://linktr.ee/phnxsports   ALLCITY Network, Inc. aka PHNX and PHNX Sports is in no way affiliated with or endorsed by the City of Phoenix   PHNX Events: Get your tickets to Suns Takeovers, Suns Watch Parties, and MORE here: https://gophnx.com/events/     bet365: https://www.bet365.com/olp/open-account?affiliate=365_03330244 Use the code PHNX365 to sign up, deposit $10 and choose your offer!

  2. POSTGAME: Phoenix Mercury STUN Aces on Ring Night Behind BRILLIANT Jovana Nogic Debut

    POSTGAME: Phoenix Mercury STUN Aces on Ring Night Behind BRILLIANT Jovana Nogic Debut

    The Phoenix Mercury walked into Vegas as 9.5-point underdogs on the Las Vegas Aces’ ring night… and completely stole the show. Jovana Nogic announced herself in a BIG way with a brilliant Mercury debut, Alyssa Thomas controlled the game like only she can, and Phoenix flat-out outworked the defending champs from the opening tip. The Mercury finished with 22 assists on 37 made field goals, Natasha Mack posted a double-double with a career-high 15 rebounds, and DeWanna Bonner looked right at home back in a Mercury uniform. After getting swept by Vegas last season, this felt like one hell of a statement from a Mercury team that spent the entire offseason hearing about what they lost instead of what they still had. We’re breaking down Jovana Nogic’s breakout performance, Alyssa Thomas setting the tone, Mack dominating the glass, DB’s impact in her return, and why Phoenix looked far more connected, and dangerous, than many expected heading into the 2026 season.

  3. "Experts" Are WRONG About Alyssa Thomas & Phoenix Mercury!

    4 DAYS AGO

    "Experts" Are WRONG About Alyssa Thomas & Phoenix Mercury!

    The Mercury just went to the WNBA Finals, returned two thirds of the core of that group, and somehow STILL feel like an afterthought in a lot of national conversations heading into 2026.   Phoenix already showed flashes during preseason play, but the biggest thing people continue to underestimate is the impact Alyssa Thomas has on winning. And when you pair that with continuing to pressure defenses downhill and Phoenix having more lineup versatility than people give them credit for, it’s hard to understand why this team keeps getting counted out. Today we’re talking about why the Mercury still don’t seem to get the respect they deserve, why Alyssa Thomas remains one of the most impactful players in basketball, how Kahleah Copper raises the ceiling of this team, and why Phoenix might be getting overlooked AGAIN heading into the 2026 WNBA season.   Welcome to PHNX Mercury, where we make it more fun to be a Mercury fan!   0:00 - Marta Suarez and More Mercury news and notes 19:00 - Erika is BACK?! 20:50 - Noémie Brochant 23:00 - Can we just talk basketball? 26:22 - Alyssa Thomas at media day 41:15 - Kahleah Copper Shined at Media Day 58:00 - ESPN pre-season rankings   JOIN THE SUPPORTERS CLUB ➡️ https://tinyurl.com/yc6km2r4   An ALLCITY Network Production   SUBSCRIBE to our YouTube: https://bit.ly/phnx_youtube   ALL THINGS PHNX: http://linktr.ee/phnxsports   ALLCITY Network, Inc. aka PHNX and PHNX Sports is in no way affiliated with or endorsed by the City of Phoenix   PHNX Events: Get your tickets to Suns Takeovers, Suns Watch Parties, and MORE here: https://gophnx.com/events/     bet365: https://www.bet365.com/olp/open-account?affiliate=365_03330244 Use the code PHNX365 to sign up, deposit $10 and choose your offer!

    Phoenix Mercury Look Overseas To RELOAD After Satou Sabally LEFT for NY Liberty

    The Phoenix Mercury are trying to run it back after a trip to the 2025 WNBA Finals, but they’ll be doing it without Satou Sabally, who left in free agency for New York. So now what? On today’s PHNX Mercury show, we’re breaking down all of Phoenix’s offseason moves, from bringing back Alyssa Thomas, Kahleah Copper, DeWanna Bonner and Sami Whitcomb to adding more depth and taking another swing overseas with Valériane Ayayi and Noémie Brochant. Is this enough to keep the Mercury in the title mix, or did Satou’s exit change everything? We’re talking roster fit, training camp battles, who needs to step up, and what this team could actually look like in 2026.   Welcome to PHNX Mercury, where we make it more fun to be a Mercury fan!   0:00 - WNBA is back 3:00 - Satou Sabally departs for New York 13:00 - Important returning pieces 18:00 - How will the Merc play differently this season? 24:00 - Who are the 12?   JOIN THE SUPPORTERS CLUB ➡️ https://tinyurl.com/yc6km2r4   An ALLCITY Network Production   SUBSCRIBE to our YouTube: https://bit.ly/phnx_youtube   ALL THINGS PHNX: http://linktr.ee/phnxsports   ALLCITY Network, Inc. aka PHNX and PHNX Sports is in no way affiliated with or endorsed by the City of Phoenix   PHNX Events: Get your tickets to Suns Takeovers, Suns Watch Parties, and MORE here: https://gophnx.com/events/     bet365: https://www.bet365.com/olp/open-account?affiliate=365_03330244 Use the code PHNX365 to sign up, deposit $10 and choose your offer!
