Nádia Gomes Colhado (February 25, 1989) is a Brazilian female basketball player.[1] At the 2012 Summer Olympics, she competed for the Brazil women's national basketball team in the women's event. During the 2013-14 Brazilian championship, Colhado played with Érika de Souza and Tiffany Hayes, both from the WNBA's Atlanta Dream, for Sport Recife. While Dream coach Michael Cooper visited his players, he was impressed with Colhado and invited her to the team's training camp prior to the 2014 WNBA season.[2] She eventually passed the tests to join Atlanta,[3] and despite having limited minutes due to the Dream's abundance of centers, took part in 16 games of the regular season.[4] Colhado played 6 more games in the 2015 WNBA season before being waived by the Dream.[5]
