Mercury makes WNBA history in their most recent game
The Mercury made their way into the record book after their last game, but it wasn't for something positive. The Phoenix team relied too much on shooting the long ball that it ended up being their nightmare against the Sun. The team shot 1-27 from beyond the three-point arc and registered 3.7% from that range.
Their embarrassing performance became the lowest three-point percentage in a single game in the league's history. They were also limited to just 47 points that game because of their abysmal performance from beyond the arc.
There wasn't a single player who reached double digits in scoring and Natasha Cloud was the only player who came close. She recorded nine points and three assists but went 0-3 from beyond the arc.
Diana Taurasi didn't have the best performance of her career during the game as she finished with six points and missed all seven of her attempts from three. Taurasi had the most attempts from deep.
Aside from their struggles shooting the basketball, the team garnered 20 turnovers to the Sun's nine during the game. Their field goals also didn't look good, although their missed threes accounted for most of those numbers. They only made 15 shots of their 63 attempts from the field.
