Golden State’s first WNBA championship is over, but several Valkyries have overseas basketball on their calendars. The team’s players are spread across club competitions in Europe and Asia, with rookie Justė Jocytė signed to the new Project B circuit.

SFGATE reported that Janelle Salaün is signed with Galatasaray in Turkey and Cecilia Zandalasini plans to play for Schio in Italy. Aminata Gueye signed with USK Praha in Czechia. Development players Ashten Prechtel and Miela Sowah are linked to the Eneos Sunflowers in Japan and Townsville Fire in Australia, respectively.

Salaün averaged 12.7 points and 4.0 rebounds and was the unanimous WNBA Sixth Player of the Year, the league said. She came off the bench throughout the regular season and was part of the Golden State team that beat Atlanta for the title.

Project B’s opening event is slated for China in January. The European clubs already compete during the WNBA offseason, so readers can follow different Valkyries on separate schedules.
