Cameron Brink remains unavailable for the Lunar Owls BC as they take on the Phantom BC on Monday for their third and final encounter in the Unrivaled regular season. Brink is listed out for this season of the 3×3 league as she’s still recovering from a torn ACL injury sustained during the 2024 WNBA season.
Ahead of the start of Unrivaled in January, Brink had relayed that while she’s progressing in her recovery, she will not be able to participate in the league’s inaugural season.
“I’m not able to do a ton,” Brink said. “I’m just really appreciative that I’m able to be here and that my teammates are super accepting of me and cheering me on from the sidelines. I haven’t been able to do a ton, but [am doing] more and more every day.”
Cameron Brink had signed a two-year deal with Unrivaled in December, five months after her surgery to repair her ACL injury. She was onboarded into the wild-card spot of the Lunar Owls and is set to make her debut in the 2026 season of the league.
“It means a lot to be here and that the Unrivaled team and people want me here to see what’s going on for next year,” Brink said. “It’s a great opportunity.
“[Unrivaled] invited me, so I said why not take advantage of being around the best players [and] have great teammates. I hope to get stronger and advance in my recovery process.”
Despite Cameron Brink’s absence, the Lunar Owls BC are dominating the six-team league as they stand first with a 10-1 record. They also are 2-0 against the Phantom BC in their ongoing season series and are favored to secure a sweep against them in the upcoming matchup.
