Natasha Cloud's tenure with the Phoenix Mercury lasted just one season after the team traded her to the Connecticut Sun.
The WNBA landscape continues to be shaken by major moves ahead of free agency, with one of the latest transactions involving Natasha Cloud.
I hope you’re sitting because the massive free agency deals aren’t slowing down. First, Kelsey Plum and Jewell Loyd were traded, and now five-time WNBA All-Star Alyss Thomas is on the move. Thomas is reportedly joining the Phoenix Mercury via trade, the second landscape-shifting move in less than a week.
The Sun will receive guard Natasha Cloud, wing Rebecca Allen and the No. 12 pick in the 2025 WNBA Draft in exchange for Thomas. Ty Harris will also head to Phoenix in the deal. The full trade was initially reported by Howard Megdal of The Next and later confirmed by Philippou.
The Phoenix Mercury's trade for Alyssa Thomas could bring in more of her All-Star teammates to address the team's needs.
