The Valkyries brought Bree Hall back on a seven-day contract Wednesday as they continue to deal with injury issues down the stretch of their inaugural season.

Forward Cecilia Zandalasini was ruled out for Saturday’s home game against Washington (5:30 p.m., KPIX+) with a calf injury that has already kept her out of Golden State’s last two games.

Before the injury, the 29-year-old Italian had been on a productive run for the Valkyries, scoring in double digits in each of her last five games as she shot a scorching 17-of-31 (55%) from 3-point range. She has been a key scorer for the Valkyries since All-Star Kayla Thornton went down with a season-ending knee injury.

Saturday’s game begins a back-to-back set that finishes Sunday at home against Caitlin Clark and the Indiana Fever.
