Latest News About Carla Leite

Here are the latest updates I can pull together from public sources:

NBC Sports highlighted a recent performance where she logged 19 points in 19 minutes after dealing with a right ankle issue earlier in the week [source: NBC Sports article about Carla Leite, published April 13, 2026]. This suggests she returned to form relatively quickly after the injury [NBC Sports].

• Fox Sports WNBA coverage around late May 2026 noted she was listed as out or questionable on a couple of occasions due to the right ankle injury, with teams adjusting rotations accordingly in her absence [Fox Sports WNBA player news, May 17–28, 2026]. This indicates she missed at least a couple of games during that stretch [Fox Sports].

• ESPN and other outlets have tracked her season-long production, with mentions of her early-season scoring and minutes as part of the Fire/Valkyries dual assignment, and coverage of injury status affecting her availability [ESPN WNBA player news, May 2026; StatMuse career summary]. These sources corroborate that she remains a notable contributor when healthy [ESPN; StatMuse].

• A May 2026 NBC Sports YouTube clip recaps a game where Leite scored 18 points and hit a clutch three in a Portland Fire win over the New York Liberty, underscoring her impact in high-leverage moments when she’s available [NBC YouTube clip, May 25, 2026].
