The 2026 WNBA Expansion Draft has concluded, and for the Golden State Valkyries, the cost of growth was steep. In this episode of Podhalla, Brian and Garrett Gonzales react to the news that both Carla Leite and Maria Conde have been selected by the league's newest franchises.
The Portland Fire made a massive move by snagging guard Carla Leite, while the Toronto Tempo capitalized on the unprotected list by taking forward Maria Conde. Brian and Garrett dive deep into the emotional and tactical fallout of these picks.
Key segments in this episode:
The Leite & Conde Departure: A tribute to their time in the Bay and an analysis of how Portland and Toronto plan to use them.
Expansion Draft Grade: Our thoughts on the overall haul for the Portland Fire and Toronto Tempo.
The Broadcast: A look at the ESPN presentation of a show about the draft, not the actual draft.
The landscape of the WNBA is shifting, and while it hurts to see Leite and Conde go, the Valkyries' journey is just beginning. We want to hear from you—did the front office make the right call on the protected list?
