ESPN Insider Expects This WNBA Team to 'Take Big Swings' in Free Agency

This upcoming WNBA free agency period is extremely compelling for several reasons.

One of the main ones is that there are plenty of superstars available. And because most of these players will almost certainly be looking to sign one-year deals in advance of the current CBA expiring (so they'll be in a position to earn much higher salaries when the next CBA is instituted), it will be fascinating to see where players land.

In addition, this free agency period has an added wrinkle because of the Golden State Valkyries, who are the WNBA's newest team and constructed their roster via the Expansion Draft last month.

However, the Valkyries are also able to be active in free agency. And ESPN WNBA insider Alexa Philippou expects to see Golden State make major moves as soon as they're able to do so, which she conveyed in a January 7 article.
