INDIANAPOLIS (AP) — Longtime WNBA pro DeWanna Bonner moved into third place on the league’s career scoring list in her Indiana Fever debut Saturday.
She passed Tina Thompson when she made two free throws with 3:13 to go in the game against the Fever's nearest rival, the Chicago Sky. The crowd gave her a standing ovation when she left.
Bonner, a two-time league champion and six-time All-Star, has now scored 7,489 points. Thompson finished her career with 7,488.
Only the recently retired Diana Taurasi and Tina Charles have scored more points than Bonner, who has made the All-WNBA team twice.
