Aari McDonald excited to return to Arizona to face the formidable Phoenix Mercury

It’s been a tough go of it for former Arizona star Aari McDonald and her Tucson fans. She is now on her third head coach since being drafted by the Atlanta Dream in April. Meanwhile, many of the Wildcat faithful have struggled to navigate the Byzantine nature of WNBA broadcast deals to watch their beloved point guard.

Finally, those fans can take the 114-mile drive from McKale Center to the Footprint Center to see the Dream kick off the second half of the season against the Phoenix Mercury.

“I posted a tweet yesterday and even before I came, everyone has been texting me, hitting me up on Twitter, all that,” McDonald said.
