The Golden State Valkyries are rewriting history in their rookie year. 💜💛⁣ ⁣ With last night’s 84–80 win over the Wings, the W’s first expansion team in 17 years officially clinched a playoff berth – the first franchise ever to do it in Year 1. 🤯 ⁣ ⁣ They’ve already sold out all 22 home games at Chase Center and set a women’s sports record with 15,000+ season-ticket deposits. Talk about an entrance. 👏⁣ ⁣ Now, with three games left, the Valks are eyeing a strong finish to avoid a tough first-round matchup. Their debut playoff run will start on the road, but Bay Area fans will get to pack the SAP Center in San Jose for Game 2.⁣ ⁣ Expansion team? More like instant contender. 🏀✨ #thegist⁣ ⁣ #womenssports #basketball #wnba #wnbabasketball #valkyries
