Gabby Williams Takes OVER! Valkyries Beat Dream in Game 7 to Win the WNBA Championship
The Golden State Valkyries are WNBA champions, and Gabby Williams just had the best second half in Finals history.
Trysta and Sarah react to the Valkyries’ Game 7 win over the Dream. They start with Gabby’s 30-point night (28 of them in the second half) and how she hunted Jordan Canada, made a 31-footer to take the lead for good and made a huge play on every possession down the stretch. Then they get into where Atlanta slipped, including Angel Reese’s seven shots, Karl Smesko’s late-game rotations and the wasted time on contested threes, plus Natalie Nakase’s coaching masterclass.
Plus, what each team needs this offseason, Tiffany Hayes’ likely farewell, the Fever’s new assistant GM, the future of the Houston Comets’ coaching staff, the Sparks’ eyebrow-raising scout hire and why Angel Reese made Finals history even in a loss.
