The Golden State Valkyries held on late thanks to a Veronica Burton 3-pointer and Kiah Stokes block to take Game 2 against the Las Vegas Aces and are now one win away from the WNBA Finals.

Joseph Dycus (Bay Area News Group), Jane Kenny (SF Standard) Marisa Ingemi (Valkyries Beat) and Kenzo Fukuda (Clutch Points) look ahead to Game 3 and maybe beyond.
