Natalie Nakase reflects on the Valkyries' historic first season
Back in May, the Golden State Valkyries played their first game at Chase Center in front of 18,000 screaming fans. The introduction of a WNBA team marked the start of a new chapter in Bay Area sports history, and over the next four months, the story exceeded everyone’s expectations.
The Valkyries sold out all 22 home games, won 23 regular-season matchups, and became the first expansion team in league history to make the playoffs.
The person at the center of it all is WNBA Coach of the Year Natalie Nakase, who joins Section 415 host Kerry Crowley to reflect on the magnitude of the team’s achievements, and where Golden State goes from here.
