Five days after a purple egg appeared outside Chase Center, Monday night's hatching revealed Violet the raven as the Valkyries' mascot. Violet's unveiling was part of a "Bird Watchers Night" promotion, in which fans peered through team-provided binoculars to watch Violet's introduction.

The Golden State Valkyries have unveiled a new mascot. The awaited moment had been teased all through the past week, when a large purple egg appeared on the outside of Chase Center in San Francisco.

Tiffany Hayes and Cecilia Zandalasini each scored 17 points, Janelle Salaun added 16, leading the Valkyries past the Connecticut Sun 74-57 on the night of their mascot's debut.
