Los Angeles Sparks rookie Cameron Brink shared a heartbreaking message on social media after sustaining an ACL injury that will sideline her for the rest of the WNBA season and the Paris Olympics.
Brink, who was selected to play on the U.S. 3x3 women’s basketball team, suffered a torn ACL Tuesday night during the team’s loss to the Connecticut Sun.
Needless to say, Brink’s heart was shattered.
“You never think it will happen to you,” Brink said in her social media post. “And despite all the hard work sometimes it does. This is hard to fathom but I know it will only make me stronger.”
Brink, a 6-foot-4 forward from Stanford who was the No. 2 pick in the 2024 WNBA draft — behind the Indiana Fever’s Caitlin Clark — tried to stay positive about the unfortunate situation.
