The Dallas Wings will attempt to snap a lengthy skid as they face the expansion Golden State Valkyries. It has been a difficult stretch for Dallas, who at 9–27 have already been eliminated from playoff contention. The Wings have lost three games in a row and eight of their last nine overall. Many of those defeats have been close calls – including a heart-breaking 81-80 loss in their most recent game – but Dallas has consistently struggled to close out games.
Defensive lapses and turnovers in crunch time have cost them leads, and their home form has suffered as a result (they are enduring a multi-game home losing streak). The morale in the Wings’ camp is undoubtedly tested, but they will be eager to play spoiler and end the season on a positive note. On the other side, the Golden State Valkyries have had a solid inaugural season. The WNBA’s newest franchise sits at 18–17, fighting to secure a playoff spot in the Western Conference.
The Valkyries have dropped their last two contests, but those came against strong opponents, and they remain a competitive unit. Golden State has shown flashes of excellent defense and hustle – they recently held a high-scoring Phoenix team to a manageable total despite a loss – and they tend to play hard on the road. Coming into this matchup, the Valkyries will see an opportunity to get back on track against a struggling Wings squad.

Our Dallas Wings vs Golden State Valkyries Prediction
Key players could heavily influence the narrative of this game. For Dallas, rookie guard Paige Bueckers has been the standout story. In the Wings’ last outing, Bueckers exploded for 44 points, nearly carrying Dallas to an upset victory. Her scoring ability and confidence have been a rare bright spot for the Wings in an otherwise tough season. Alongside her, veteran scoring guard Arike Ogunbowale typically leads the team in offense; although her recent performances have been quieter, she remains a threat to get hot from the perimeter.
The Valkyries, meanwhile, are led by a mix of youth and experience. Point guard Veronica Burton has stepped up as a floor general and was impressive even in defeat – she recorded 24 points and 14 assists in a game earlier this week, showcasing her playmaking talent. Golden State also leans on veteran guard Tiffany Hayes, who provides leadership and averages about 12 points per game to stabilize the offense.
Given the trajectories, Golden State appears to have the upper hand. Dallas’s young squad has shown fight (especially with Bueckers’ heroics), but the Valkyries have been the more cohesive team this season. Unless the Wings can dramatically tighten up their late-game execution, the Valkyries’ balanced attack and defensive energy should carry them to a win. Look for Golden State to capitalize on Dallas’s mistakes and come away with a victory, while Dallas will aim to keep it close and give their home fans a competitive effort. Our prediction for Dallas Wings vs Golden State Valkyries: Over 159.5 points.
