The Phoenix Mercury are set to kick off their 28th season on May 14. This year’s iteration of the three-time WNBA Champions features Brittney Griner, 2021 WNBA Finals MVP Kahleah Copper, and the GOAT, Diana Taurasi.
Thirty-six of the Mercury’s games will be televised locally on either 3TV, Arizona’s Family Sports (AZFS), ABC, or Ion Television. All are available on basic cable or with an antenna.
Four games will be televised nationally on ESPN or ESPN2.
The team plays home games at Footprint Center in downtown Phoenix, and tickets can go for as low as $20, but prices vary depending on the game.
