Tiffany Hayes came close with 9.5 points per game for the Aces en route to winning the Sixth Player of the Year Award, and she’ll be asked to step into an even bigger role for the Valkyries. Kayla Thornton will be asked to shoulder some of the scoring load as well.
Lithuanian shooting guard Juste Jocyte, the franchise’s first draft pick at No. 5 overall, is still playing in Europe and may join the Valkyries midseason, if she chooses.
Like the Sun, this will be a year of laying the foundation. Coach Natalie Nakase will have to be patient with her roster as will the fans, although they’ll probably just be happy to have WNBA basketball in San Francisco.
