The Phoenix Mercury stunned the Portland Fire with a gritty 78-72 win despite missing key players Alyssa Thomas and Kahleah Copper. DeWanna Bonner lit up the scoreboard with a season-high 19 points, including a clutch three-pointer late in the game, while Natasha Mack added 16. Phoenix’s success hinged on a stellar 10-of-12 free throw performance, with Bonner going 4-for-4. Portland’s Sarah Ashlee Barker led the charge with 15 points and 7 rebounds, but 20 turnovers doomed their effort. The Mercury head to Golden State next, while the Fire face Los Angeles.
