The WNBA posts highlights at the end of every last game of the night to showcase the best moments around the league. Despite the 93-80 win, the WNBA didn’t include any Phoenix highlights in its recap.
This caused a stir from fans in the comments and responses, including from star Kahleah Copper and the Mercury themselves.
Do better @WNBA https://t.co/CosN2dVG0x

When we won the game but don’t have a single highlight in the 2:24 recap video from the WNBA.
So we put together some Mercury highlights from last night’s game in case you watched the other video and didn’t see a single one … because there wasn’t a single one. https://t.co/grC8P1Xtoo pic.twitter.com/ecINysuVlZ— Phoenix Mercury (@PhoenixMercury) June 12, 2025
Not even a Phoenix fan but having highlights from every team that played last night but them when they had plenty of good plays is wack
