The 6-foot-4 guard/forward Bonner is now back with the WNBA team that drafted her No. 5 in 2009; she spent 10 seasons in Phoenix and won two WNBA titles there. Then, after five seasons with the Connecticut Sun, Bonner signed as a free agent this year with the Indiana Fever but played just nine games there.

Cut loose by the Indiana Fever, forward DeWanna Bonner comes back to where she started her career, rejoining fiancée Alyssa Thomas.

Six-time WNBA All-Star DeWanna Bonner is expected to sign with the Phoenix Mercury, according to ESPN's Michael Voepel and Josh Weinfuss. The move comes after the Indiana Fever last month waived the 16-year WNBA veteran in a move Bonner requested.
