In this episode, we talk about Carla Leite—the fearless 19-year-old guard from France who’s now suiting up for the Golden State Valkyries wearing jersey #0. From dominating the court in Lyon to making her WNBA debut in the Bay, Carla brings boldness, flair, and a whole lot of promise.

But this convo isn’t just about her stats or potential—it’s about why we’re instantly obsessed. We get into her confidence, creativity, and what it means to have an international star stepping onto this brand-new stage. Come hang out as we celebrate Carla’s debut, dream about her impact, and soak in the excitement of seeing this next-gen talent help shape the Valkyries from day one. Bienvenue, Carla!
