Relocated Wings and Aces do, but Aces were the Silver Stars before that, so not an additional 's' team. Non-plural names are case by case to me. For the WNBA, it's kind of a fun quirk that it's majority non-plural. "The Valkyrie" rolls off the tongue better for me without the S (even though that's the correct pluralization), so that could've worked.

I've never been big on non-s names, but between this league and the Pro Volleyball Federation, it seems to work for the women's leagues. Men's leagues I'm still skeptical, some exceptions applied.
