The Golden State Valkyries are back for Season 2, and they started with a statement! Join Garrett Gonzales and Brian Gonzales on this live edition of Podhalla as we break down the Valkyries' impressive 91-80 victory over the Seattle Storm to kick off the 2026 campaign.
The "sophomore" era of the Valkyries looks dangerous. Janelle Salaün was unstoppable, dropping 20 points with five triples, while Kaitlyn Chen proved she belongs, contributing 14 points and veteran-level poise. We discuss how the chemistry has evolved since the inaugural season and what this win says about their playoff aspirations this year.
In this episode, we cover:
Game 1 Breakdown: Analyzing the 91-80 win in Seattle and the team’s defensive intensity.
Roster Heartbreak: Our reaction to Iliana Rupert missing the entire 2026 season due to her pregnancy—huge shoes to fill in the paint.
The Kate Martin Move: Breaking down the news of Kate Martin being cut and what it means for the bench depth.
League Outlook: How the Valkyries stack up in the Western Conference early on.
The energy around Chase Center is at an all-time high, but with Rupert out, the front office has work to do. Can the Valkyries maintain this pace without their star center?
How are you feeling about the Valkyries after that Game 1 win? Share your thoughts on the roster moves in the comments below!
