PHOENIX –After a blockbuster offseason acquiring two All-Stars, the Phoenix Mercury retooled to make a serious push next season. Phoenix was swept in the first round by the Minnesota Lynx, and a lot of uncertainty surrounded this team, with Brittney Griner and Diana Taurasi not expected to be there next season. However, Mercury’s general manager Nick U’Ren buckled up, trading for six-time All-Star Alyssa Thomas and two-time All-Star Satou Sabally.
