The Indiana Fever are all set to host Connecticut Sun on Tuesday, June 17th at the Gainbridge Fieldhouse, Indianapolis. The main talking point from the Indiana Fever point of view would be whether DeWanna Bonner starts against Connecticut Sun or not.
Will DeWanna Bonner play against Connecticut Sun?
The 37-year-old guard sees her name on the team's injury report as she will be missing Tuesday's clash against Connecticut Sun. This will be her second game on the trot that she will be missing due to personal reasons.
Bonner missed the franchise's last outing against New York Liberty as the Indiana Fever went on to 102-88. While there has been no exact reason why DeWanna Bonner has been missing for Indiana Fever, head coach Stephanie White shared that she is doing well under the given circumstances.
Following the news of her absence against the Connecticut Sun, fans took to the social media to share their concern. Many were concerned of Bonner's well being as they shared messages of support, hoping that she soon returns to the action.
A fan said, praying for DB i hope everything is ok.
Another fan said, Hopefully its just some mental time. And nothing more.
A fan commented, Kind of worried about DB. Hope she snd her family are ok. Looking forward to getting her back on the team.
DeWanna Bonner joined the Indiana Fever in the offseason as she signed a one-year contract worth $200,000 in free agency. She has been one of the key players for the Indiana Fever as her presence has brought leadership and championship experience to a rather young roster. But, she still needs to find her best form on the court in an Indiana Fever uniform.
Bonner started the ongoing WNBA season in the starting lineup but was then moved to the bench. Coming off the bench, DeWanna Bonner clocked meaningful minutes before she stepped away from the team. She is still searching for her breakthrough game as she has been averaging 7.1 points and 3.8 rebounds per game.
