Late word out of Phoenix today that star Guard Diana Taurisi will be suspended without pay for the next 2 games. Taurisi was pulled over and arrested for DUI July 2nd after a home game in Phoenix.
The story from The East Valley Tribune here .
The WNBA apparently feels that the team suspension is enough punishment saying "The WNBA supports the actions taken today by the Mercury and we don't believe further action by the league will be necessary". The judge hearing the case on July 22nd however, may say a little more due to the fact that Miss Taurisi had a nearly lethal level of alcohol in her bloodstream.
