DeWanna Bonner FURIOUS & BLAMES Caitlin Clark After DISASTER WNBA FINALS!
DeWanna Bonner FURIOUS & BLAMES Caitlin Clark After DISASTER WNBA FINALS! After Game 3 of the WNBA Finals, the WNBA Phoenix Mercury didn’t just lose; they imploded.
And leading the meltdown was none other than DeWanna Bonner and Alyssa Thomas, who decided to take her frustration out on — you guessed it — Caitlin Clark and Indiana Fever fans. Yep, apparently, when your team faceplants in front of empty seats, the logical move is to blame the one player who isn’t even there. She’s furious after the disaster WNBA finals!
October 13, 2025 — Emotions are running high after a disastrous WNBA Finals performance from the Phoenix Mercury, and veteran forward DeWanna Bonner is at the center of a fiery post-game controversy.
Following the Mercury’s crushing Game 3 loss — which sealed a Finals sweep in favor of the Las Vegas Aces — Bonner didn’t hold back. Instead of focusing solely on her team’s collapse, she shifted the spotlight to none other than Indiana Fever rookie sensation Caitlin Clark… who wasn’t even in the building.
Sources close to the locker room say Bonner and her partner, fellow Mercury star Alyssa Thomas, erupted in frustration after the final buzzer. While fans expected disappointment after a Finals blowout, few anticipated Bonner directing part of her anger toward Clark and the Indiana Fever fanbase.
“It’s ridiculous,” Bonner reportedly said. “All season long, all the media, all the hype — it wasn’t about us. It was about one player who hasn’t won anything yet. And now, when the lights are on and the seats are empty, we’re left to carry the league’s weight.”
Her comments — interpreted by many as a direct jab at Caitlin Clark and the WNBA’s media focus on the rookie — have ignited fierce debate across social media and the sports world.
Fans were quick to point out the irony: blaming Clark, who had no part in the Finals, while Phoenix’s own struggles were on full display. The Mercury trailed in nearly every statistical category throughout the series and appeared outmatched in both execution and energy.
Bonner’s frustration also extended to the empty seats in the arena — a stark contrast to the sold-out crowds Clark helped draw throughout the season. “We’re in the Finals, and this is what we get?” Bonner added. “But let Clark play a regular season game, and it’s standing-room only? Something’s off.”
The remarks have polarized fans. Some support Bonner’s stance, arguing that the league’s promotional efforts have overly focused on Clark at the expense of veteran stars. Others see it as deflection — a refusal to take accountability after Phoenix’s on-court implosion.
Alyssa Thomas reportedly backed Bonner’s sentiments, telling reporters: “We put in years of work for this league. Don’t forget that.”
Caitlin Clark has not responded publicly, but her name continues to trend as reactions pour in. Fever fans and players have largely stayed silent, perhaps in an effort to avoid fueling the fire.
Meanwhile, the Mercury organization has yet to comment officially on Bonner’s post-game remarks. With the Finals over and the Aces crowned champions, attention now turns to the off-season — and the growing tension among the league’s stars as a generational shift continues to reshape the WNBA landscape.
One thing’s for sure: even when she’s not on the court, Caitlin Clark remains at the center of the conversation — whether she wants to be or not.
