Toronto TempovsGolden State Valkyries
TOR 81/GS 92
Things to say
Golden State beat Toronto 92-81 at Chase Center.
01
opener
Valkyries handled business at home, 92-81. Never really felt close down the stretch. Toronto hung around but couldn't get over the hump.
02
key player
Janelle Salaun dropped 21 and was the best player on the floor. She's quietly turning into buckets for Golden State.
03
hot take
Honestly the Valkyries at 21-9 are the story nobody's talking about. That's a legit team, not a fluke.
04
deep cut
Veronica Burton stuffed the sheet — 7 dimes and 8 boards. Doesn't score much but she runs that whole offense.
05
exit
Anyway, Toronto's 10-20 and fading, we'll see if they bother chasing the last playoff spot.
The recap
Golden State handled business at home, taking down Toronto 92-81 to push to 21-9. Janelle Salaun led the way with 21 to pace the Valkyries, while Veronica Burton stuffed the stat sheet with 7 dimes and 8 boards running the show.
Nyara Sabally kept the Tempo hanging around with 21 of her own, but Toronto just didn't have enough buckets to keep pace and took the L. Another solid night for a Valkyries squad that keeps piling up wins while Toronto falls to 10-20.
