Golden State Valkyries guard Gabby Williams is signing a multiyear deal with Unrivaled, the league announced Thursday. Her contract will begin at the start of the 3-on-3 league's 2027 season, which tips off in January. "The opportunity to compete alongside some of the best players in the world, continue growing my game, and be a part of something that is pushing women's basketball forward is truly special," Williams said in a statement.
The 5-foot-11 forward is in the midst of her first season with Golden State after joining the team as a free agent this offseason. 5 per game. Williams spent four seasons with the Seattle Storm before signing with the Valkyries.
She finished second in WNBA Defensive Player of the Year voting in 2025 and recorded 99 steals that season, the second-most in a single WNBA season in league history. Williams won consecutive EuroLeague Defensive Player of the Year honors in 2025 and 2026 with Turkish club Fenerbahçe.
She represented France at the 2020 Olympics, earning a bronze medal, and at the 2024 Olympics, earning a silver medal.
Unrivaled's season runs from January until mid-March. Williams will be unable to play for Fenerbahçe during that stretch.
