Available to play Friday Leite (knee) is listed as available for Friday's game against Seattle.

Questionable for Friday Leite (knee) is questionable for Friday's game against the Storm, Sean Highkin of RoseGardenReport.com reports.

Impact Leite sat out of Wednesday's matchup against Minnesota due to a left knee injury, but she'll have an opportunity to return Friday after being upgraded to questionable. The team will presumably monitor her closely leading up to tipoff before making a final determination on her status for Friday's clash.

Unavailable against Minnesota Leite (knee) is listed as out for Wednesday's game versus the Lynx.

Impact Leite will miss just her third contest of the 2026 campaign. The Fire don't play again until Friday against Seattle, so there should be an update on her condition before then. Without Leite on the floor, Jordan Harrison will enter the starting lineup for the first time in her career.

Iffy to face Minnesota Leite (knee) is listed as questionable for Wednesday's game against the Lynx.

Impact Leite exited Saturday's win over the Storm with a left knee sprain and is now being listed on the injury report with knee soreness. If the second-year floor general isn't cleared to play Wednesday, Jordan Harrison and Holly Winterburn would be candidates for increased playing time.

Won't return Saturday Leite won't return to Saturday's game against the Storm due to a left knee sprain, Sean Highkin of RoseGardenReport.com reports.

Impact Leite will end her evening with two assists and a turnover across four minutes, and for now, she should be considered questionable for Wednesday's meeting with the Lynx. Jordan Harrison started the second half in Leite's place Saturday, so Harrison stands to benefit if Leite needs to miss time.
