Taissa Queiroz brings length, poise, and Brazilian upside to UNC’s backcourt
Taissa Queiroz is a 6-foot-1 guard for North Carolina who entered the 2025-26 season as a four-star recruit and, in her first college season, appeared in 25 games off the bench while shooting 49.2% from the field and averaging 2.8 points, 2.8 rebounds, and 1.1 assists. UNC also highlighted a career-best 10 points, seven rebounds, and four assists in 2025-26, which hints at a versatile, low-drama connector rather than a pure volume scorer. Her appeal is clear: size, international pedigree with Brazil, and a reputation for commitment and development upside.
