Golden State Valkyries close regular season with win

Overview

The Golden State Valkyries concluded their regular season with a 70–57 victory over the Seattle Storm at the Chase Center on September 19, 2026. The win secured a season sweep of the Storm and marked the Valkyries’ sixth consecutive victory, moving their record to 31–11 and placing them within a half-game of first place in the WNBA standings, trailing only the Minnesota Lynx.

Despite resting key players Gabby Williams, Janelle Salaün, and Cecilia Zandalasini following their involvement in the FIBA Women’s Basketball World Cup, the Valkyries utilized defensive pressure and bench depth to secure the win. Kaila Charles led the team with 16 points, 12 rebounds, and four steals, while Juste Jocyte and Laeticia Amihere each contributed 11 points. The Storm were led by Flau’jae Johnson, who scored 17 points.

In addition to the victory, the franchise achieved a historic milestone, becoming the first WNBA franchise to sell out every home game in its first two seasons. The team finished its regular-season home schedule with a 17–5 record.
