As good as Golden State has been, its roster is currently built more for regular-season success than playoff basketball. When Plum played more of her natural combo guard role in 2025, she shot 38.8 percent on catch-and-shoot threes. Golden State also has the defensive infrastructure to cover for her weaknesses on that end. Plum played under Valkyries head coach Natalie Nakase for three seasons when she was an assistant with the Las Vegas Aces from 2022 to 2024. If Los Angeles decides to move Plum, Golden State can put together a package with the best combination of young talent and draft capital.
