00:00And why we start with some rather devastating news in the WNBA the number
00:07two overall pick in the 2024 WNBA draft one of the most talented rookies in the
00:13sport at this moment the Sparks Cameron Brink suffered an injury earlier this
00:18week that yesterday was revealed to be a torn ACL more than likely ending her
00:24rookie campaign rather early and Brink was on the US women's basketball three
00:30on three team for the Olympics starting in Paris late next month as well just
00:36how disappointing JY is this situation and the news for Cameron Brink it's
00:43devastating and as a coach that's coach women's basketball then as soon as I saw
00:48her go down I knew that was an ACL I've seen that far far too often for a
00:53Cameron Brink let's be honest struggled a little bit early on but started to
00:57come on had one of her better games in that 81 87 74 loss versus Atlanta the
01:02game before she got hurt getting 16 and 7 now she was getting herself into foul
01:06trouble she wasn't playing a ton of minutes but I felt like she was slowly
01:11turning the corner her and Dorica Hamby were starting to become a pretty
01:14formidable 4-5 combo so this is a tough situation for a kid that's gonna be out

01:24what Haley Van Liff which would be interesting you know so we'll see what

01:34coach all-player UConn old coach at GW Tammy Reese head coach at URI is the
01:39assistant for the three-on-three team we'll see what happens but devastating
01:43injury for Cameron Brink and LA Sparks
