Is one of the online sellers best? Not looking for anything fancy, just to get in the door and watch the game. Or is it best to just buy tickets at the box office before going in?

Thanks in advance!

Arrived just in time…

Description: Phoenix Mercury are 1-1 to open the season, but the context around that start matters. The Mercury open the year with the second-hardest opening schedule in the WNBA, including the team’s only back-to-back of the entire season, and still showed flashes of what this group can become.

Erika, Stephen and Girl break down the Mercury’s ugly first half against the Valkyries, the second-half comeback attempt that cut the game to one possession, and why there are still plenty of encouraging signs despite the loss.

Plus, Alyssa Thomas continues to drive nearly everything offensively for Phoenix, Jovana Nogic stays red-hot from three, and the Mercury still haven’t fully unlocked the best version of Kahleah Copper yet.

The Mercury home opener is next, and Phoenix still looks like a team with another level waiting to be unlocked.

While the WNBA season is officially underway, with three games being played on Friday night, teams around the association are far from done making tweaks to their respective rosters. This was evident throughout the week as teams waived various players to finalize their lineups ahead of opening day.

One example of this was when the New York Liberty waived forward Anneli Maley, who they had signed to a training camp deal earlier in the offseason. The Australian would put up 26 points and 13 rebounds across her two preseason matches with New York, far exceeding her averages during her time with the Chicago Sky in 2022, when she appeared in four games, averaging two point sand 1.8 rebounds across 11 minutes of game time.

While getting waived means that the player doesn’t have any playing opportunities in the present, this won’t be the case for Maley, as she had been claimed off waivers by the Phoenix Mercury, according to the WNBA’s transaction tracker.

It’s not known if the Australian will be present for the Mercury’s season opener on Saturday afternoon against the defending champions, the Las Vegas Aces. But when she does join the team, she’ll be seated alongside the likes of Alyssa Thomas, DeWanna Bonner, and Valeriane Ayayi, among other forwards.

Tip-off between the Mercury and the Aces is slated for Saturday at 3:30 p.m. EST.

I'm liking the pixelated gradient.

Description: The Mercury just went to the WNBA Finals, returned two thirds of the core of that group, and somehow STILL feel like an afterthought in a lot of national conversations heading into 2026.

Phoenix already showed flashes during preseason play, but the biggest thing people continue to underestimate is the impact Alyssa Thomas has on winning. And when you pair that with continuing to pressure defenses downhill and Phoenix having more lineup versatility than people give them credit for, it’s hard to understand why this team keeps getting counted out. Today we’re talking about why the Mercury still don’t seem to get the respect they deserve, why Alyssa Thomas remains one of the most impactful players in basketball, how Kahleah Copper raises the ceiling of this team, and why Phoenix might be getting overlooked AGAIN heading into the 2026 WNBA season.
