Indiana Fever Urged to Trade For Two-Time WNBA All-Star After DeWanna Bonner News
Indiana Fever Urged to Trade For Two-Time WNBA All-Star After DeWanna Bonner News originally appeared on Athlon Sports. Caitlin Clark and the Indiana Fever have hit a bit of a slump during their three-game West Coast road trip. Advertisement On Tuesday, the Fever will look to end a two-game drought, taking on Skylar Diggins and the Seattle Storm at 10:00 p.m. ET. DeWanna Bonner, who joined the Fever in the offseason, has missed the past four games due to personal reasons. She had been a key player off the bench, averaging 7.1 points and 3.8 rebounds. However, after being ruled out for Tuesday's game, it appears Bonner is no longer interested in staying with the Fever. Ahead of Indiana vs. Seattle, Front Office Sports' Annie Costabile reported that Bonner and the Fever are heading for a breakup. "According to multiple league sources, the two-time WNBA champion has no interest in returning to play for the Fever," Costabile wrote. "Those same sources indicated Bonner's preferred landing spots are with the Phoenix Mercury or the Atlanta Dream." Following the news about Bonner, many WNBA fans have suggested that Indiana should trade for Phoenix Mercury star Satou Sabally, a move that would align with Bonner's reported preferred destinations. Advertisement Sabally, a two-time All-Star, has been the Mercury's top performer in her first season with the team. Through 15 games in 2025, the 6-foot-4 forward is averaging 19.3 points, 8.1 rebounds and 2.6 assists. "Bonner for Sabally @AmberLCox," one fan said. "Bet send us Satou," added another. "Sabally for Bonner and a draft pick, who says no?" asked a third. "Would Phoenix trade draft picks or Sabally for her Idk," wrote a fourth. "Satou Sabally for DeWanna Bonner & a first round pick who says no??? Make Alyssa Thomas happy & the Fever get better," posted a fifth. "Bonner for Sabally or PaoPao," added a sixth.

SFNet Releases Q1 2025 Asset-Based Lending and Confidence Indexes
Quarterly Survey Finds Slipping Confidence Among Bank and Non-Bank Lenders NEW YORK, June 26, 2025--(BUSINESS WIRE)--The Secured Finance Network (SFNet) recently released its Q1 2025 Asset-Based Lending Index and Lender Confidence Index, offering a snapshot of how the industry weathered recent trade policy volatility during the first quarter of this year. According to the Q1 index, both bank and non-bank lenders saw lender confidence fall to neutral territory. The confidence of banks dropped 14.1 points to 49.1, while non-banks slid 12.5 points to 52.5, a sizable decline that is comparable to the drop in confidence in the first quarter of 2020. "Substantial changes in trade policy have played a pivotal role in shaping U.S. economic activity in early 2025, and the resulting distortions have complicated efforts to clearly assess the economy's true performance," said SFNet CEO Rich Gumbrecht. The first quarter of 2025 was a relatively quiet one for banks and non-banks: Total commitments for banks fell 1.7%; total commitments for non-banks fell 2.2% New outstandings for banks rose 9.8%; new outstandings for non-banks plunged 57.4% "New outstandings" refers to new amounts of money that a borrower has drawn or borrowed under the ABL facility during a specific period. The sharp difference between outstandings for banks and non-banks stems from the timing of when new deals will be available in the non-bank world, and many rely on deals from banks which didn't materialize. Bank portfolio performance was mixed in the first quarter. Non-accruals rose but remained within their historical range and write-offs were muted, but criticized loans – which have elevated credit risk – as a share of outstandings edged down 180 basis points. Credit performance within the ABL industry has typically been strong and is slowly returning to pre-pandemic levels. Non-bank portfolio performance was mostly stable. Criticized loans and non-accruals climbed higher but write-offs improved, declining as a share of outstandings. "Although signs point to a slowdown in economic activity and ABL lenders expect both business conditions and portfolio performance to decline, the industry's strong historical performance during past downturns provides confidence that lenders are well-prepared to navigate potential challenges ahead," said Gumbrecht. The Q1 2025 Asset-Based Lending Index and Lender Confidence Index are based on survey data from leading bank and non-bank lenders. Full quarterly and annual data reports are available at: SFNet Asset-Based Lending & Factoring Surveys.
