Valkyries win WNBA title in their second season

The Golden State Valkyries win the Women's NBA title by beating Atlanta Dream in the finals decider.

The Golden State Valkyries secured the Women's NBA title in just their second season with a 68-63 victory over the Atlanta Dream.

After the Dream levelled the seven-match series on Thursday, Gabby Williams starred for the Valkyries with 30 points to seal the win in the first Game Seven in WNBA Finals history.

Williams also claimed the WNBA Finals Most Valuable Player award.

"It's easy when the energy is this good and positive," said Williams. I wouldn't change a thing.

"All it took was good people. We have winners, we have people who are ready to put their bodies on the floor to win a game.

"They don't care about scoring. They just want to do defence and rebounding. Do whatever it takes and we built a beautiful culture here."
