Right after announcing the addition of Gabby Williams, the Golden State Valkyries returned two of her French national team teammates.

Golden State signed Janelle Salaun and Iliana Rupert to multi-year deals after extending qualified offers to them both last week.

Both projected starters for next year’s team, Salaun was a rookie last season and was named to the league’s rookie first team while Rupert had her best WNBA showing yet in only half a season.

Salaun averaged 11.3 points and 5.1 rebounds per game after arriving from France, while Rupert’s 44.3 % from 3-point range from the center position led to a career-high 9.3 points per game.
