No. 2: A Comeback for the Ages

On July 28, the Mercury hosted the Chicago Sky at US Airways Center in a rematch of the 2014 WNBA Finals.

In the first half, things didn’t exactly go according to play for the Mercury as they trailed by 19 points in the second quarter.

“I just didn’t think we were playing hard enough, really,” Brondello said. “It’s not that we weren’t having the effort; we didn’t have the execution and that really hurt us in the schemes that we did.”

Luckily for the Mercury, they looked like an entirely different team in the second half.

DeWanna Bonner scored 16 points in the third quarter, going 6-7 from the field and 5-5 from the free throw line, the most points from a Mercury player in a quarter this season. Bonner finished with a season-high 34 points including eight in overtime as Phoenix rallied to beat Chicago 89-87.

“I just wanted to win,” Bonner said. “We came out pretty sluggish —we got down by a lot and we weren’t playing our game. I just wanted to be aggressive (at the end)—tried to get things going. That’s what they preach to me so that was what I was trying to do.”

The remarkable come-from-behind victory is tied for the franchise’s greatest comeback in team history (the Mercury trailed by 19 points on June 22, 1999 at Washington and came back to win, 79-76).
