The Golden State Valkyries got the better of the Atlanta Dream on Friday. Angel Reese got another double-double, but it wasn’t enough for the Dream.
There was one notable incident in the game that caught the fans’ attention. The Valkyries’ Gabby Williams made a choking gesture mid-game. Some fans called out Williams for the gesture, while others claimed she was making fun of herself and appreciated her humility.
Williams made the gesture right after she had missed a free throw late in the game. She then smiled as she walked towards her teammates. The commentator laughed and said she was frustrated with herself.
