The Seattle Storm (8-33) visit the Golden State Valkyries (29-11) for a 2026 WNBA regular season matchup on Saturday, September 19, at Chase Center.
The Valkyries hold the season head-to-head advantage over the Storm, having won both games. In their most recent match last June, the Valkyries hacked out a 76-72 win behind a good defensive outing. Janelle Salaun led Golden State with 22 points off the bench, while Gabby Williams chipped in 19 markers.
Moreover, Golden State has now won six straight games, including a recent 82-66 victory over the Portland Fire. It was a balanced offensive performance for the Valkyries, with Kaitlyn Chen and Laeticia Amihere putting up 17 points apiece.
The Valkyries also did a solid job on defense, which has been their signature all season long. They currently lead the league in defensive rating (101.3), while still having a decent offense (seventh in the league).
As for the Storm, they have lost five of their last six games, including an embarrassing 114-77 loss to the Las Vegas Aces. They have the worst record this year, and their sputtering offense isn't helping at all.
Zia Cooke and Jordan Horston are currently listed as out in the Storm's injury report.
