Violet the Raven has violet feathers and gold glasses and can do gymnastics and dance. She did try some layups with the help of Quinten Post, and in complete commitment to the spirit of the Valkyries, the worst shooting team in the WNBA, she missed all 4 layups. She'll fit right in.

My new power rankings of egg hatching predictions now that we know it has feathers

1. Peggy the Winged Horse
2. Goldie the Eagle in her Valk Aerie
3. Val O’Ciraptor
4. An endless fractal of smaller eggs
5. Violet Egg cryptocurrency

Doesn’t matter, the analytics are clear, G-S-V presages doom

I intend to be back for the hatching of the giant radioactive lizard mascot

Did you TikTok the return of Julie Vanloo?

Arrival of the Mystery Valkyrie Egg. Yes, a literal big egg. This is not a poetic metaphor. It will hatch on Monday

Sounds frightening

Do you know how incredibly expensive it is to feed a violet dinosaur (assuming you don’t let it free range on the public)

Here are my scientific predictions for the new (speculated) mascot that could hatch:

1. Golden Eagle living in its Valk Aerie
2. Val the Violet Dinosaur
3. Togepi Pokémon
4. Violet Yoshi
5. Purple Egg cryptocurrency

Life always finds a way

I like @sabreenajm.bsky.social’s guess that this could hatch a mascot. All I know is that if it hatches a new Purple Egg cryptocurrency, I will be fuming

Ooooh you might be on to something!

I would have never guessed the culprits, but it’s not surprising that a dangerous, selfish stunt came out of that particular subculture

no one better throw that on the Valkyries court

First in 40: The Story of the 2014-15 Warriors

The three-part feature will premiere exclusively on YouTube.com/Warriors. First episode drops this Thursday at 2 p.m. PT.

I feel like the last two times I heard players were just resting, the players ended up out for three weeks and infinity weeks

Exclusive: Valkyries' Natalie Nakase, Kaitlyn Chen hold Asian American high school tournament connection Valkyries' Natalie Nakase and Kaitlin Chen have a shared history playing in the North South Asian-American high school basketball tournament.

EXCLUSIVE 📝📝📝:

Valkyries’ Natalie Nakase and Kaitlyn Chen are intertwined. By firsts. By basketball. But also by North-South.

I talked to them about their 30-year connection to one of the oldest Asian American HS tournaments in California.

A beautiful little story about doubt, and a love letter to his family and everyone who kept him going along the way.

Absolutely loaded with supposedly “natural” human growth hormone…

“The Valkyries entered Sunday with the second-worst 3-point percentage in the WNBA at 31.5% despite their 30.1 attempts per game leading the league.”

Game 27 wrap: Injured Valkyries outlast injured Sky; Kaila Charles debuts and closes game

On strategy, the clutch debut of Charles, Always Close Enough To Hurt™, and maybe the thrown objects are a good luck charm?

Great gutsy win for GSV. I'm thinking that maybe it should become a new tradition to have certain objects thrown onto the court. So far, it's been good luck for the Valkyries. Just think of the promotional giveaways!

I would tell you to not race immediately to the worst case scenario, but yes

if you somehow manage to acquire your own pick, then you have earned the right to tank cause you probably paid a lot for the privilege

yes, they get whoever's left, even if it's themselves (which is possible if the other 29 teams pick each other)

On the whole, if teams draft proxies well then they will get better player draft picks.

You still get season-long lottery drama with teams fist pumping over injuries and crying over overachieving teams

It would be all the saltiness of "got picked last at the all-star team" x 29

you're welcome
