Natalie Nakase on Building the Golden State Valkyries. Plus, Hunter Cruse on the Valks and Aces.
This week, Seerat takes a closer look at the newly assembled Golden Stake Valkyries! First, she speaks with their head coach, Natalie Nakase, who discusses the team’s thought process on putting together a roster for an expansion team, the three non-negotiable qualities for her team, and reuniting with Kate Martin from the Aces. Nakase then talks about her time with the LA Clippers, and the incredibly valuable lessons she learned from Jerry West (1:28 ).
Later, Seerat welcomes WNBA draft expert Hunter Cruse to break down the Valkyries' expansion draft and how it will position the team for a championship run sooner than later. Finally, they look at Las Vegas Aces' and what they will look like after losing key members of their team (46:15 ).
