DeWanna Bonner appears to be a player who has earned the rare privilege of controlling her own WNBA destiny regardless of her contract. After leaving the Indiana Fever when they waived her in 2025, after just nine games, the six-time All-Star has now secured a mutual buyout with the Phoenix Mercury that will allow her to change teams to chase her third WNBA championship right before the playoffs.

The Phoenix Mercury made the decision two days after losing DeWanna Bonner.

PHOENIX – After waiting for her opportunity to suit up for the Phoenix Mercury, Kelsey Plum will finally make her debut Tuesday night. She has described the moment as “super excited” per Shane Young of the Mercury and something that has felt like a long time coming.

For the second year in a row, DeWanna Bonner is leaving a team, but not through the official draft window or as part of a trade between two seasons. This situation is highly reminiscent of last year, when the forward played just nine games for the Indiana Fever before getting waived and joining the Phoenix Mercury.

The Mercury and DeWanna Bonner have reached an agreement to buy out her contract. Once she clears waivers, the six-time All-Star will look for a chance to sign as a free agent with a playoff team.
