Thomas was Phoenix’s only representative in the mid-season game, highlighting her achievements halfway through the season. She, along with Team Collier, took a fun and demanding win over Team Clark, 151-131. However, it wasn’t only the game that had fans talking.

The Mercury posted a fun sketch on their X (formerly Twitter) account, with Thomas and the rest of Team Collier. Fans quickly deciphered who the rest of the sketches were, with Minnesota Lynx’s Courtney Williams the most identifiable due to her hair color and IV drip.

The post has over 12,000 likes and 619,000 views, making it one of the most viral Mercury posts of the weekend.
