The Golden State Valkyries finally have some players on their roster, or at least under team control. In the WNBA Expansion Draft for the Valkyries on Friday, the new franchise was given an opportunity to select one player from every other squad in the league. They were allowed to take one player who is a pending free agent, giving them an opportunity to negotiate with them prior to free agency.
Here are all of their selections:
1. Iliana Rupert, C (Atlanta Dream)
The 12th overall pick in the 2021 WNBA Draft out of French professional leagues, Rupert has bounced between the Las Vegas Aces and Dream in her young career.
