Kaitlyn Chen Plays in Her First WNBA Regular Season Game

We had blogged recently that the WNBA’s Golden State Valkyries had signed Kaitlyn Chen to a short-term contract after they had initially let her go prior to the regular season starting. Chen’s first game in the regular WNBA season was an away game against the Dallas Wings, but she didn’t play any minutes. Her second game was at home in San Francisco against the Indiana Fever and Caitlin Clark. Again, Chen didn’t get any playing time.  You can see her on the bench in this picture that I took at the game.

She finally got off the bench this past Sunday, June 22nd playing against the Connecticut Sun.   In that game, Kaitlyn Chen plays for 21 minutes, scoring 2 of 3 from the field and 1 free throw to score 5 points! Unfortunately, I didn’t happen to attend that home game. Hope to see her in action soon as we mentioned that she is likely to get waived again after the Eurobasket Women Tournament concludes.
