PHOENIX- The Phoenix Mercury roster underwent several changes during the offseason, losing Natasha Cloud and Brittney Griner in trades and seeing Diana Taurasi retire. Still, the team remains optimistic about the upcoming season.
Alyssa Thomas is one of the Mercury’s key additions after a trade with the Connecticut Sun. During her introductory news conference, she expressed excitement and shared her thoughts on the team’s strengths.
“Defensively, I think we’re so versatile… we can get after it and guard people in a lot of different ways. And offensively, I mean, the floor is going to be so spaced… It’s going to be a lot of fun just to be able to push tempo and be surrounded by so many great players [and] so many great shooters,” Thomas said.
Defensive versatility, shooters, fast tempo, the sky is the limit!
