The Valkyries faced criticism for not telling Julie Vanloo she was cut before she skipped Belgium's EuroBasket title celebration to return to the U.S.

The Golden State Valkyries waived veteran point guard Julie Vanloo on Monday as they made a flurry of post-EuroBasket roster moves. The move comes as a surprise as Vanloo was expected to return to the team following her stint playing for Belgium at the EuroBasket tournament. The Valkyries temporarily suspended her contract on June 10.
