DeWanna Bonner Sends Emotional Message After Reaching 8,000 Points

Phoenix Mercury star DeWanna Bonner couldn't help but get emotional as she reflected on her career following her latest WNBA milestone.

During the Mercury's July 7 game against the Chicago Sky, Bonner recorded 12 points on 3-of-6 shooting, along with seven rebounds, one steal and one block. With her scoring output, she officially reached the 8,000-point mark.

Bonner became just the third player in WNBA history to score 8,000 points, joining Diana Taurasi (10,646 points) and Tina Charles (8,398 points).

Now, nearly a week after her accomplishment, Bonner shared a post on Instagram where she looked back at her journey to becoming one of the greatest scorers in league history. She mentioned that while "8,000 points is the headline," getting to that point wasn't easy.
