After a week away from the court, Gabby Williams and the Golden State Valkyries return to action on Saturday afternoon for Game 1 of the 2026 WNBA Finals against Angel Reese and the visiting Atlanta Dream at the Chase Center in San Francisco, California.
Golden State is in only its second year since joining the league as an expansion team, and is already knocking on the door of becoming champions.
For the special occasion, Williams brought her A-game to the pre-game tunnel with a stellar look for her Rakuten fit check.
Williams was turning heads in a flashy pink miniskirt, with a white corset top and and a white Miu Miu bag. It’s a perfect compliment to the Valkyries backdrop.
