The Golden State Valkyries have signed French guard Migna Touré to a training camp contract, the team announced on Monday.
The 6-foot shooting guard averaged 9.1 points, 2.2 rebounds and 1.5 assists per game while shooting 55.4 percent from the field and 41.7 percent from beyond the arc for the Spanish-based team Spar Girona this past season.
Touré, 30, is the 11th player on the Valkyries’ roster to be born outside the United States. She was a key contributor to the French National Team as she averaged 9.5 points, 3.5 rebounds and 2.0 assists at the 2025 FIBA Women’s EuroBasket Qualifiers.
In the 2023 FIBA EuroBasket bronze medal game, Touré scored a game-high 20 points to lead France to a 82-68 win over Hungary.
Golden State has made an emphasis to acquire bigger guards who have well-rounded skillsets like Touré in its first offseason. Touré will be competing in a crowded guard group that includes Shyanne Sellers, Kate Martin, Carla Leite, Kaitlyn Chen, Tiffany Hayes, Veronica Burton and Julie Vanloo for a roster spot during training camp.
The Valkyries’ current roster stands at 21 players, which will eventually get cut down to 12 before the team’s season opener against the L.A. Sparks on May 16 at Chase Center.
