First time to Ballhalla

Visiting the bay from Portland tomorrow & just scooped up some game 2 tickets. First time at the venue—what shouldn’t I miss there? Super excited to feel & contribute to the energy. Go Valks!

The Valkyries have the highest-scoring bench in WNBA history 👀👀

We got the amazing Maddy Brown to do a data driven analysis of just how powerful the Valkyries' bench is: https://allvalks.com/stories/golden-state-valkyries-and-the-power-of-benchship

From the article:

"The Valkyries bench scored 35.9 points per game this season, the most by any bench in WNBA history. The old record was 35.0, set by the 2020 Las Vegas Aces (who got swept in the finals by the Seattle Storm).

Per minute, the Valks bench actually scores more than the starters, 16.1 points per 36 compared to 13.8. The bench also outshoots the starters with 56.4% true shooting vs 52.2%. The same cannot be said about any other team. On the other 14 teams, the starters score at a higher rate..."

The other three graphs in the article are also super cool and goes to show how unique this team is! Nakase is truly rewriting the WNBA winning playbook.
