Jess Smith, the president of the Golden State Valkyries, revealed the team's name, colors, and logo at the Chase Center, inspired by powerful female warriors from Norse mythology. The violet and black uniforms will bear a V-shaped logo representing the Valkyries, with a Bay Bridge tower forming a sword shape and cables creating triangles symbolizing five-woman teams on the court.
The team name was chosen from 200 contenders grouped into categories like Warriors-related terms, local cultural references, nature, and energy/vibe. The Valkyries, the 13th W.N.B.A. team, stand out as the first new franchise since 2008, set to play at Chase Center.
