Cameron Brink can see the light at the end of the tunnel.
She’s been out for 13 months after tearing the ACL in her left knee in a game at Connecticut in June last season.
Now she’s been cleared to play again and is eager to get back on the court with her Los Angeles Sparks teammates.
“I feel great. I’m super thankful that the Sparks have let me take my time and really feel great coming back,” Brink said to a few reporters after shootaround Saturday. “I’m excited to be out there with my teammates.”
Brink has been working toward playing in a game. After the Sparks finished their pregame shootaround, Brink went to the Barclays Center practice court and got in another 20-minute workout.
