De Souza Named to Brazilian Olympic Team

From the Painel do Basquete Feminino (Women's Basketball Scoreboard) blog.

And, for reasons that we all know, Iziane Castro Marques was left off.

Érika de Souza (this is how she spells her name) is of course recovering from an injury. I'm sure the Brazilians hope that she'll be fully recovered by the time August rolls around. I'm hoping to see her in a few games for the Dream, myself.

Kelly Santos is a forward for the Seattle Storm.

PPG 1.3
RPG 0.5
APG 0.0
EFF: + 1.17

Hopefully, she'll get a chance to shine in Brazil and get that silver medal. Gold, of course, is ours. (/smile)
