Salaun registered seven points (3-10 FG, 1-3 3Pt) and seven rebounds in 24 minutes during Thursday's 79-60 win over New York.
Salaun struggled to find the bottom of the net in this one, though she managed to contribute elsewhere by turning in her best rebounding night since July 10. She'll end her streak of double-digit scoring performances at five games following Thursday's showing. Salaun will now set her sights on the FIBA World Cup and is slated to miss Sunday's matchup against the Fire to head overseas. She's expected to return to the Valkyries in time for a Sept. 18 matchup against the Fire.

How it's counted
Each situation shows this player's numbers in those games, with the difference from their full-season line in parentheses. The definition sits under each situation name. Situations overlap: one game can count in several.
True shooting is one shooting number that folds in threes and free throws; its differences are in points of TS%. Every final box score counts — there is no minutes cutoff. Fewer than 5 games reads as a small sample. These splits describe what happened. They do not prove the schedule caused it.
