The Phoenix Mercury games have become the ultimate celebrity magnet! From boxing legends to NBA superstars, the courtside seats are as star-studded as the game itself. On October 8, 2025, boxing champ Floyd Mayweather Jr. was spotted courtside, soaking in the intense WNBA Finals game between the Phoenix Mercury and Las Vegas Aces.
NBA icon James Harden also made an appearance on September 26, 2025, cheering on the Mercury as they faced off against the Minnesota Lynx in the WNBA semifinals. It seems that the allure of the Mercury is irresistible to sports legends, with Mayweather also seen enjoying the action during the semifinals on the same day.
“The energy at the Phoenix Mercury games is electric. It’s no wonder celebrities can’t stay away!”
The Phoenix Suns players have shown their unwavering support for their WNBA counterparts. On September 26, 2025, Suns players like CJ Huntley, Dillon Brooks, and Nick Richards were all in attendance, rallying behind the Mercury during their crucial semifinal match against the Lynx. Earlier in the month, Brooks and Jalen Green were spotted at a game against the Indiana Fever, with Devin Booker chatting it up with Mercury CEO Josh Bartlestein.
And it’s not just the Suns players who love catching a Mercury game. Former NFL star Marshawn Lynch was seen at a game against the Las Vegas Aces on June 15, 2025, while U.S. Vice President Kamala Harris shared a memorable moment with Brittney Griner and the team in 2023.
The Mercury games even draw in Hollywood and sports royalty. Tom Brady was spotted leaving the court after the Aces' home opener against the Mercury in May 2024. Meanwhile, the Curry family – Stephen, Ayesha, and Seth – made headlines with their appearance at a match against the Aces in September 2023.
Adding to the star power, tennis legend Billie Jean King was seen chatting with former NBA player Michael Cooper during a game in May 2023. Even the larger-than-life Shaquille O'Neal couldn't resist the pull of the Mercury games, attending a semifinal playoff matchup in 2021.
Phoenix Mercury games aren’t just about basketball – they’re about catching a glimpse of the biggest stars across sports and entertainment!
