Veronica Burton Reveals What Natalie Nakase Did After Valkyries Won WNBA Finals
Fresh off securing a WNBA championship in just their second year, the Golden State Valkyries are already seeing their relentless team culture on full display. Guard Veronica Burton shared that head coach Natalie Nakase immediately re-watched their dramatic Game 7 victory over the Atlanta Dream multiple times rather than taking a break.
Nakase's intense dedication helped guide the expansion franchise to a title following a stellar regular season and previously earned her Coach of the Year honors. Burton herself experienced a massive career resurgence under Nakase's leadership, evolving into a key contributor and cementing her role by sinking clutch free throws in the final seconds of the championship-clinching game.
