What happened: Golden State Valkyries won Game 1 with 108 points, their Six different players made multiple 3-pointers, the first such distribution in WNBA history. Players credited defense for sparking the offense.
Why it matters: A Game 1 win secures the early series lead and home-court advantage in the playoffs. Six-player outside shooting forces defenses to guard the full rotation rather than loading to one threat.
By the numbers: 108 points: 6 players with multiple 3-pointers: first team in WNBA history to do so in one game.
What to watch: Game 2 will test whether Golden State's rotation shooting holds and how the opponent adjusts perimeter coverage.
