WNBA Training Camps around the country began Sunday, including down in Phoenix Arizona at the Mercury’s camp. Amongst Mercury stars and WNBA Legends Diana Taurasi, Skylar-Diggins Smith, and Brittney Griner was former Syracuse Orange women’s basketball guard Tiana Mangakahia. Mangakahia went undrafted this spring but was quickly offered a spot in the Mercury’s training camp after the draft was over.
The Mercury have 17 players on their training camp roster and will need to cut that number down to at most 12 by May 13 at 5:00 p.m. EST. Phoenix will open the 2021 season on the road against the Minnesota Lynx on May 14 at 8:00 p.
