Golden State Valkyries captured their first WNBA championship on Sunday, defeating the Atlanta Dream in a decisive Game 7 behind a 30-point performance from Gabby Williams.
The victory came in just the franchise's second season, capping a grueling seven-game series. Williams led all scorers with 30 points as the Valkyries secured the title on November 1, 2026.
The series went the distance, with both teams trading wins before Golden State prevailed in the final contest. The championship marks a rapid rise for the expansion franchise.
