Reports that Griner signed a one-year contract with the Mercury surfaced Saturday, later being confirmed by the team Tuesday.
"It’s a great day for all of us to announce that Brittney Griner has officially signed to play for the Mercury in 2023. We missed BG every day that she was gone and, while basketball was not our primary concern, her presence on the floor, in our locker room, around our organization, and within our community was greatly missed," said Mercury General Manager Jim Pitman in a release.
The Phoenix Mercury's first game is scheduled for May 19 against the Los Angeles Sparks. The first home game is scheduled for May 21 against the Chicago Sky. View this post on Instagram A post shared by BG
