The Golden State Valkyries are approaching their first game in the WNBA at Chase Center after introducing their key 2025 draft picks, Shyanne Sellers and Kaitlyn Chen. Both players received a warm welcome upon their arrival to San Francisco and expressed their eagerness to embrace the underdog role and contribute to the new team. General Manager Ohemaa Nyanin praised the athletes for their competitive spirit. The team has already sold over 10,000 season tickets, illustrating the significant local support ahead of their debut on May 16th.
I feel like we're kind of looked at as underdogs, and I love taking on that role, and the best thing about it is no one knows what to expect from us.
The atmosphere in there was amazing, it was so loud. I think we're so lucky to also be able to play in that exact same atmosphere and we're just looking forward to May 16th.
There are no words to describe how much faith the Bay Area has in our franchise, more specifically, and I can't wait for our inaugural season.
Both athletes are thoughtful, competitive, hungry and deserving to be there.
