What’s a valkyrie? How Golden State — and the other WNBA teams — got their names
New York TimesIn Norse mythology, warrior women often depicted flying with swords would come down to battlefields and select dead men to fight in a battle at the end of the world. It’s also the name of the WNBA’s new team, the Golden State Valkyries, who will build their first roster through Friday’s expansion draft. How WNBA teams got their names The Dream’s name was inspired by Martin Luther King Jr.’s iconic “I Have a Dream” speech from 1963. “‘Las Vegas Aces’ is a nod to the excellence, confidence and competitive spirit of our new hometown,” former coach Bill Laimbeer said when the team moved to Vegas. “It’s the perfect name because of the weather here and what the team plans to do in the league,” said president and CEO Karen Bryant at the time.
