  • It’s the moment all Indiana Fever fans have been waiting for as DeWanna Bonner looks to be the final BIG signing to the team in free agency! She adds some MUCH NEEDED length to the team while also solidifying the team as possibly the best offensive team in the game! Was this a good signing? Are the Fever planning anything else??

    You have provided such great insight regarding this latest news, as usual. Ever since the new Fever management took over, it's been pretty much pedal to the metal all the way, starting with bringing Stephanie White (and her staff) on board. I agree, now having veteran enforcers will hopefully mean Caitlin won't have to endure so much abuse this season (plus, she's no longer a rookie). And she will have a significantly stronger team to work with, supported by a competent and respected coaching staff. It's gonna be fun!

      The fox is now literally guarding the henhouse, you really think Bonner is going to stick her scrawny scarecrow neck on the line for CC? Her and Thomas will likely collab and scheme up ways they can get her injured. And throw games for the Mercury just like Nalyssa did for the mustard queen.

    The Bonner thing came down to one play really. Caitlin went up for a jump shot and when she came down Bonner was in her landing zone. That is a foul but it wasn't called. Since it is something every player should know about because it is so dangerous that CC went off on Bonner. Bonner pushed back on that instead of an being apologetic and that is where the friction is.

    With the 3 non-guaranteed contracts for their draft picks, they would be 200k over the cap. Also new guard Jaelyn Brown & Victaria Saxton are on non-guaranteed rookie contracts. I think they are loaded right now. With my estimates of salaries for Bonner & Howard being near the max, they are capped right now, so future moves or bringing on draft picks will require player movement.

I am still worried that DB could be NaLyssa Smith 2.0. Krauskopf also talked about making team chemistry and high work ethic a top priority, and then traded NaLyssa Smith. Signing Natasha Howard, Sophie Cunningham and DeWanna Bonner and re-signing Kelsey Mitchell has just made the Fever the scariest team in the WNBA in 2025 and a team that will challenge for the title.

If Howard and Bonner suit up 44 games between the two of them I'll be surprised. I'm not sure after watching a few Suns games last year that White actually had much control over the behavior of that team. Particularly Carrington being creepy but I saw Thomas take cheap shots too. I think they'll regret getting rid of Berger.

    Last season, when fever ran these 4: Clark, Boston, Mitchell, Hull and then EITHER Temi OR Dantas - that was their best 5. Temi has better defence rating, Dantas had better offence rating but on balance, statistically, they were equivalent. Smith by comparison was hugely negative (literally like -20 to -30!). The fact they dropped Smith and have Bonner who is straight up better than Fagbenle when it comes to offence. They also have Howard AND Cunningham. I think they might be able to retain the desire of these new team members to stay with them too.

    I'm not as fired up as most seem to be. This kind of win-a-championship-NOW kind of team building rarely results in one. It takes time, consistency, and chemistry to build championship team. Cunningham seems to be the one who will immediately fit right in. Howard and Bonner are not a given no matter their veteran status or how much fans might want them to be. And cutting Grace Berger just has a bad feeling about it. I'll hope for the best but don't get the feeling any of this is an automatic winning formula.

      Phoenix??? Fail. Fever are way ahead of Phoenix at the moment, especially if Taurasi (42 years old) does not retire. If Taurasi retires, it frees up cap space to aquire 1 excellent player or two that could be significant contributors. But Phoenix apparently did not make a serious move on Bonner, and their options with free agents are dwindling, so unless they can manage a big trade Phoenix is a middle-of-the-pack team in 2025.

      I agree. On paper all these signings may seem great but its way too many changes and not only that far too many chiefs and not enough Indians. There is going to be bickering and squabbling over the limited
      minutes, chemistry issues, age issues (having one geezer puts the team at the tipping point, two getting significant minutes starts to slow the team down). The two energy players (Hull/Cunningham) whom the fans want to see will be riding pine mostly so fans will be unhappy. Bottom line: The sum of teams' parts is not going to equal the output. I see this season being an abysmal dissappointment.

    On court "chippiness" is one thing. Trying to assault and injure other players is quite another. Dewanna Bonner many times last year deliberately jumped under Clark's landings getting their feet tangled up and knocking CC to the ground. She did this repeatedly to Clark in both regular season and playoffs. She knew the crooked WNBA referees were letting them beat the crap out of Clark on the court and took full advantage of this fact along with several of her teammates. Miraculously this never caused an ankle sprain or other catastrophic injury like an ACL tear because Clark is a tough cookie. But it absolutely could have. For this reason I can't give my approval of this signing. I don't care if she helps the Fever win a championship for me it's already tainted with her presence. I want these thug players disciplined harshly anytime they get out of line bur as we all know the league caters directly to them, because all of then essentially come from a certain demographic.
