Valkyries waived Elissa Cunane and Chloe Bibby.

Cunane and Bibby were two of the five players waived by the Valkyries on Wednesday, as the team finalized the roster for its inaugural season. While the former played 12 minutes in Golden State’s two preseason contests, the latter logged 16 minutes. Cunane and Bibby faced challenging odds to make the final roster, as evidenced by their lack of playing time during the preseason. Once they clear waivers, Cunane and Bibby will be free agents and can sign with any team.
