“Meg’s going to be okay,” Burt said on Facebook. “A couple of weeks off. She will be back! Soon!”
This debut came on the same day that the Mercury officially announced the signing of McConnell, who was initially released by the team weeks ago after competing with them in training camp.

McConnell, who went undrafted in the recent WNBA Draft, earned a training camp invitation to the Phoenix Mercury organization in the WNBA shortly after the draft concluded. She then competed with the Mercury in the WNBA Preseason.
“Honestly, I couldn’t believe it when I got that call from my agent,” McConnell said in a press release from Duquesne. “He said that Phoenix was excited about me and that they wanted to offer me to a training camp, and I accepted it. And I just couldn’t be happier. I just can’t wait to go there and prove myself that I belong there. To be here at the Cooper Fieldhouse with my coaches and my teammates, I wouldn’t want it any other way, and that’s why I asked them to be by my side tonight. They’ve been there for me through the good and the bad, and just to have that support means the world to me.”
