The Phoenix Mercury reach a contract buyout with DeWanna Bonner on Aug. 24, according to multiple outlets. The agreement ends the remaining terms of the veteran guard’s contract and allows Bonner the opportunity to sign elsewhere.
Both sources report the buyout without adding details on the specific financial terms. Yahoo Sports frames the development as giving Bonner a path to potentially join a playoff contender, while Newsweek describes her as a long-time franchise veteran and highlights the Mercury’s announcement of the buyout. Neither outlet provides additional information about Bonner’s next team, timing of any new signing, or league-wide impact.
Overall, the reports agree on the key point: the Mercury and Bonner mutually agree to a contract buyout on Monday, positioning Bonner for free agency or another contract arrangement immediately afterward.
