a disruptive two-way guard with real international pedigree
Barbosa is a 5-10 guard for Portland who played in 32 games as a freshman in 2024-25, then brought strong playmaking and scoring flashes to Sweden’s U20 EuroBasket team in 2025, where she averaged 9.2 points and 2.7 assists. Her profile points to a tough, versatile perimeter defender with speed, steal production, and enough offensive touch to keep defenses honest, even if she is still developing as a high-volume scorer. For a roster fit, she looks like a useful energy guard who can defend, handle secondary creation, and provide stability rather than needing the ball to dominate.
