Last Time Out

Valkyries: Golden State extended its winning streak to five games with a 62-49 win over the Washington Mystics on July 6. The 49 points allowed were a franchise record and the fewest by any WNBA team this season — Golden State held Washington to just 16 second-half points, the first time any team has done that since 2021. Kaitlyn Chen led the bench with 14 points on 6-9 shooting.

Tempo: Toronto fell 89-76 to the Dallas Wings on July 5. Paige Bueckers scored 22 points for Dallas, and the Wings led wire-to-wire.

Historic Defense Meets a Red-Hot Scorer

Golden State's defense has been the league's best over its five-game streak, posting a 92.1 defensive rating and allowing just 68.0 points per game — more than 11 points better than any other team. That unit now heads overseas for the franchise's first-ever international game, and it draws a Tempo offense fueled by Marina Mabrey, who tied the WNBA single-game scoring record with 53 points against the Sparks and is averaging a team-high 21.1 points per game, fifth-most in the league.
