Over the years, there have been players who had brief stints with the Phoenix Mercury . They were either drafted by the team or joined the team through a trade or free agency. Some of those players joined the team during crucial times, and depending on how many games they played, they had a chance to showcase their talents. The 2012 season was one of those crucial times, as the Mercury had the worst season. They finished that year with a record of 7-27, and their poor performance led to them getting the first pick of the 2013 WNBA Draft. Phoenix added a special player during that draft, as the franchise selected Brittney Griner. That season was one the Mercury would like to forget, but even with those struggles, they had some talented players. Dymond Simon was one of those players, and after going undrafted in 2011, she signed a deal with the Mercury a year later. She played eight games with the Mercury, and she averaged 3.8 points, 1.9 assists and 1.5 rebounds. Simon's best game was a 16-point outing agains
