Coach Natalie Nakase of the Valkyries is navigating the challenges of roster changes after losing four players to EuroBasket. Despite the upheaval, she sees this as an opportunity to experiment with lineups, often featuring different closing units. The addition of five players and the return of Tiffany Hayes have contributed to the team's ongoing adaptability. The Valkyries maintain a positive track record with their depth and have had five lineup changes in four games, creating a thrill for both players and enemies alike.
"It's a constant conversation with my coaching staff, you know, what do we see? What do we like? Which is kind of fun," Nakase said.
"It makes it fun," forward Chloe Bibby said. "You might have a quick rotation in there, so it just means you can play as hard as you possibly can for those minutes that you're out there."
