Tina Charles Signs With Phoenix, Joins Skylar Diggins-Smith, Diana Taurasi

The WNBA's 2021 leading scorer has found a home for the 2022 season.

Tina Charles signed with the Phoenix Mercury, joining a star-studded roster featuring Skylar Diggins-Smith, Diana Taurasi and Brittney Griner. Charles's signing comes a day after the franchise secured Diamond DeShields in a three-team trade with the Sky and Liberty.

“Tina is an elite talent in our league and adding a player of her caliber is another example of our commitment to our fans and players to pursue a championship every year. Tina has made it clear that she wants to win and wants to do so in Phoenix,” Mercury general manager Jim Pitman said in a statement.
