Sabrina Ionescu came home. The Valkyries made sure she left empty-handed. Golden State topped the New York Liberty 76-67 on June 29, 2026, finishing their three-game homestand undefeated and capturing their third straight win. The defining moment came late in the second quarter — clinging to a one-point lead, the Valkyries went on an 11-0 run in the final 1:48 to blow the game open. Cecilia Zandalasini hit a deep three, Kayla Thornton knocked down a late-clock three, Gabby Williams drained a 30-footer, and Janelle Salaün capped it at the rim to send Ball Halla into a frenzy.
