Match Info

Date: June 3, 2026 | Venue: Chase Center, San Francisco

Match Overview

The Golden State Valkyries delivered a commanding performance on their home court, defeating the Portland Fire 95–77 in a Women’s National Basketball Association regular-season clash. The victory improved Golden State’s record to 8–3, keeping them near the top of the Western Conference standings, while Portland fell to 4–7.

How the Game Unfolded

From the opening tip, the Valkyries set a high tempo, racing to a 28–18 lead after the first quarter. The backcourt duo of guard Jasmine Thomas and sharpshooter Kelsey Mitchell combined for 14 points in the period, while the team’s switching defense disrupted Portland’s offensive sets. The Fire fought back in the second quarter, cutting the deficit to 48–40 at halftime behind forward Emma Cannon’s eight points and lively ball movement.

The third quarter proved decisive. Golden State’s frontcourt dominated the glass, with center Brionna Jones grabbing six rebounds and blocking two shots. The Valkyries outscored Portland 27–14 in the period, pushing the lead to 21 points. Portland never recovered, even as reserve guard Destiny Harden scored 10 of her team-high 18 points in the fourth quarter.

Standout Performers

Jasmine Thomas (GSW): 24 points, 7 assists, 4 rebounds – controlled the pace and hit timely jumpers.
Kelsey Mitchell (GSW): 22 points (4-of-7 from three), 5 assists – provided perimeter firepower.
Brionna Jones (GSW): 14 points, 13 rebounds, 3 blocks – anchored the paint.
Destiny Harden (POR): 18 points, 6 rebounds – led the Fire’s bench scoring.

Tactical Story

Golden State’s switch-heavy defense forced Portland into difficult mid-range looks. The Fire shot just 38% from the field and 28% from three-point range. Offensively, the Valkyries moved the ball effectively (26 team assists) and crashed the offensive boards (14 second-chance points). Portland, missing starting point guard Skylar Diggins-Smith due to a minor ankle injury, struggled to find rhythm in the half-court.

Impact on the Standings

The win keeps the Valkyries within striking distance of the Las Vegas Aces for the No. 1 seed in the West. For Portland, the loss extends a three-game skid and drops them to 10th in the overall WNBA standings, putting playoff hopes in jeopardy. The two teams meet again in Portland on June 22.
