Zendaya poses with Valkyries after Golden State inches toward WNBA championship

Zendaya went all out for the Valkyries during Game 5 of the WNBA Finals.The actor was in attendance for the highly touted matchup with her niece and made sure to show the Bay Area basketball team love by wearing Golden State’s playoff shirt and utilizing the purple boomsticks at Ballhalla.After the Valkyries defeated the Dream 64-55 Monday night, Zendaya posed for pictures with the entire team and coaching staff.Gabby Williams even got a solo shot with the two-time Emmy winner.

If the Valkyries win it all at State Farm Arena, there’s a chance the championship celebration will have to be moved to a different location.Reports have stated a practice court has been discussed.
