Kahleah Copper and the Phoenix Mercury had a rollercoaster of a 2026 season.

Expectations were high, as well as the energy to start the season. However, after an emphatic statement win against the Las Vegas Aces to start the season, the team sputtered, but Kahleah Copper’s ascent began.

She may have stumbled out of the starting blocks but her growth and dynamic grew more profound, independent of any variance in team production. How can Kahleah Copper’s 2026 season with the Phoenix Mercury be assesed?

Follow along as Gil, Stephen, and Kevin document and detail all that was the 2026 campaign from Kahleah Copper. Follow the show: @PHNX_Mercury, @GilMcGregor_, @StephenPG3 and @KevoPosts!
