WNBA expansion teams usually don't get off to good starts, but the Golden State Valkyries are rewriting that narrative.
The Valkyries improved to 10-9 after losing the first two games of a four-game road trip in Minnesota and Atlanta. Now 3-6 on the road, it was the first win outside the state of California for Golden State, which counted its first two road victories against the Sparks in Los Angeles.
The Golden State Valkyries produced a dominant 80-61 defeat over the Indiana Fever on July 9, thus improving their record to 10-9 on the 2025 WNBA regular seaso
Veronica Burton had 21 points, eight rebounds and six assists, Kayla Thornton added 18 points and eight boards, and the Golden State Valkyries beat the Indiana Fever 80-61 to spoil Caitlin Clark’s return.
Golden State held Clark to just 10 points on 4-of-12 shooting as the Fever scored their second-fewest points of the season.
