How Mercury Swept a Bitter Rival

The Phoenix Mercury made the playoffs in 2022, but it was not easy. There were several obstacles, and in the end, the Mercury finished the season 15-21. The Mercury had ups and downs, and when it came to wins, they had some good ones during that period. Phoenix won a season series with the Washington Mystics, as the team beat Washington 2-1. After looking at one of their series against an Eastern Conference team, it is a good time to look at their matchup with a Western Conference foe. The Mercury have had their share of battles with the Seattle Storm, and the 2022 season was no exception. Phoenix and Seattle met multiple times, and the Mercury won the first game. They beat the Storm by 20, and Tina Charles was their leading scorer. The veteran center had 22 points, 11 rebounds and two assists. Skylar Diggins was the second-leading scorer, and she had 19 points, seven rebounds and six assists, two steals and a block. Diana Taurasi had 15 points, four assists, two rebounds and two blocks.
