Indianapolis (AP) -The longtime WNBA -Pro Dewanna Bonner moved third on the league’s career list in her Indiana Fever debut on Saturday. She passed Tina Thompson when she made two free throwing 3:13 to go in the match against the nearest competitor of the fever, the Chicago Sky. The crowd gave her a standing ovation as she left. Bonner, a two-time league champion and six-time All-Star, has now scored 7,489 points. Thompson completed her career with 7,488. Only the recently retired Diana Taurasi and Tina Charles scored more points than Bonner, who made the All-WNBA team twice. She was an important acquisition of Indiana out of the season and chose to follow her coach in Connecticut, Stephanie White, to Indiana. “I felt that every game last year said that Dewanna Bonner moved in 12th place, Dewanna Bonner moved in 11th place, Dewanna Bonner moved in the top five,” White said before the match. “It’s really incredible and not just her life, her efficiency and how good she was her entire career and she gets lost in the shuffle, right? She played with many wonderful players, and she is just quietly doing her business. ‘ What she did and could achieve in this league, as she could do, it had available every year. The 37-year-old Bonner entered the league with Phoenix in 2009 after walking at Auburn in the university.
