It Phoenix Mercury Start your post-Diana Taraisi age on Tuesday when they face Las Vegas Aes in Sin City. For the first time since 2004, Mercury will open its preparation without the legend of the WNBA. Without the triple champion, the newly acquired stars Thomas and Satou Sabally will direct Phoenix.
In the meantime, the Vines He will try to get the second victory of the preseason when they play against the fans at their home. A'ja Wilson and Co. The Dallas Wings 112-78 was stormed in the Purcell Pavilion of Notre Dame on Friday. After failing in their three -year -old candidacy last year, ACES seem ready to re -challenge the championship.
Once Diana Taraisi called it a race, Phoenix Mercury had to return the list again. Brittney Griner's decision to leave the franchise after 11 years increased the renewal.
Instead of Taraisi and Griner at the head of the team, Kahleah Copper and newly acquired stars Alyssa ThomasSatou Sabally and Kalani Brown will take over. Coach Nate Tibbetts must have chemistry at the top of his priority list, running in the new season.
Apart from Griner and Taraisi, Sophie Cunningham and Natasha Cloud have also disappeared. Tibbetts must incorporate veteran guards Sevgi Uzun and Sami Whitcomb into a team that seeks to have another playoff race.
Meanwhile, Las Vegas Aces coach Becky Hammon showed the chemistry of his team to step on Dallas's wings in his first preseason game. With veterans A'ja Wilson, Kiah Stokes, Jackie Young and Chelsea Gray on the list, the two camps played like a machine.
Jewell Loyd, acquired in the low season of Kelsey Plum, looks like a perfect adjustment. Hammon was able to give his replica and the training camp invites a few minutes after seeing his nucleus on Friday, exploiting the team led by Arike Ogunbowale.
Nate Tibbetts called Alyssa Thomas as “basketball assistant” and showed similarities in his game with Diana Taraisi. The Phoenix Mercury coach will be very inclined to the old Sun Connecticut Superstar to quickly track the team's chemistry, regardless of the result.
Las Vegas Aces will probably take place with a victory after their impressive demonstration in their preseason opener. Las Vegas could stutter if Becky Hammon wants to give a long duration to non-regular. If Hammon rests further on his rookies and second, Thomas could drag his team to a annoying victory.
