“For those that have come from organizations who aren’t truly invested into their franchise, this is a great thing for them,” Copper explained.
When asked about comments from free agents currently there working with Mercury and the performance facility, Copper summarized it in two words.
“It’s paradise,” Copper said.
Copper also extended an invitation to those still without a team. “If you want to come here, want to come to paradise, want to come fit in with our culture, and you want to come win. Just come over,” she said.
