Valkyries Show Heart, Fall Short

The Golden State Valkyries fought valiantly in a gritty 84-79 loss to the Las Vegas Aces, showing massive improvement from their previous matchup. Gabby Williams lit up the scoreboard with a season-high 27 points, while Veronica Burton’s crucial missed free throw in the final minute proved costly. A’ja Wilson and Jackie Young carried the Aces’ offense with 28-14 and 27 points respectively, while Chelsea Gray added 12 points and a franchise-record tying 6 assists. Despite a late Valkyries lead and a smaller, more agile lineup that held its own, the Aces’ dominance at the free-throw line sealed the win — a testament to resilience and the fine line between close and crushing defeat.
