Injured Cameron Brink still brings the heat to Unrivaled in Miami
Cameron Brink won’t be suiting up for the Lunar Owls this season due to an ACL injury in the new Unrivaled league, but that didn’t stop the Los Angeles Sparks rookie making her presence felt in Miami.
The new 3-on-3 women’s basketball league is preparing for its highly anticipated debut on January 17.

Brink joins Unrivaled practice
The 23-year-old forward, who signed a multi-year deal with the Lunar Owls in December, will be unable to play until 2026.
Yet, Brink has committed to traveling to Florida to support her teammates and immerse herself in the groundbreaking league.
“Obviously I won’t be playing, but I will be supporting full-fledged,” Brink shared in a recent interview.
“I think it’s just going to be a really cool opportunity. Iron sharpens iron, so while I’m there, I’ll be able to train with people and work on my game.”
The league, co-founded by WNBA stars Breanna Stewart and Napheesa Collier, has drawn a host of elite players for its inaugural season, which spans eight weeks.
Brink’s Lunar Owls boast a star-studded roster that includes Collier, Allisha Gray, Courtney Williams, Skylar Diggins-Smith, and Shakira Austin.
While the team is defensively strong, Brink’s absence may leave a gap in offensive depth, particularly in perimeter shooting.
Despite her injury, Brink remains optimistic about her recovery.
Five months post-operation, she revealed, “I feel really good. I mean, I’m not close to being back, but that’s fine. I’ve been able to shoot around a bit on the court. That’s just a part of the process.”
Adding a personal touch to her time in Miami, Brink mentioned her fiancé, Ben Felter, might join her.
“I know my teammates that will be there love Ben because he’s the best, so it’ll be fun to have all my people together,” she said.
Unrivaled’s first season will feature six teams competing in an eight-week schedule, culminating in a two-week postseason.

The face of the Golden State Warriors and one of the most influential players in NBA history, Stephen Curry has spent over a decade thrilling fans with his dazzling skills. As a four-time NBA champion and the league’s most prolific three-point shooter, Curry has already cemented his place among basketball’s all-time greats.
Yet, despite his numerous accolades and fearless performances on the court, Curry recently revealed a surprising personal struggle. During an interview with ESPN, Curry opened up about the anxiety he faces before every game.
“Oh, for sure I have anxiety. A lot of it is baked into the expectations I’ve set and the level I want to play at. It’s your own expectations and awareness of what a good game is. It’s a healthy insecurity of having to prove yourself every single night, which is cool. It keeps you going,” Curry said.
