WNBA Community Rallies Around Cameron Brink After Season-Ending ACL Injury

Los Angeles Sparks rookie Cameron Brink suffered a season-ending ACL injury during a game against the Connecticut Sun, eliciting widespread support from the WNBA community. Brink, who was averaging 8.1 points, 5.7 rebounds, and 2.4 blocks per game, expressed determination to recover and return stronger. Several high-profile WNBA players, including Angel Reese, Breanna Stewart, and Sabrina Ionescu, publicly expressed their support for Brink. Angel Reese, in particular, posted a heartfelt message on social media and shared a picture from draft day to show solidarity. The injury occurred early in the first quarter, and Brink had to be carried off the court. The Sparks will have to navigate the rest of the season without their promising rookie.
