Cameron Brink is set to return from a 13-month layoff for the Los Angeles Sparks (11-14) as they play host to the Las Vegas Aces (13-13) at Crypto.com Arena.
No team has been playing better since the All-Star break then the Los Angeles Sparks and they’ve been doing it with a stellar offense.
After an abysmal start to the season, the Sparks are riding a five-game winning streak for a late-season push and are about to welcome back Cameron Brink.
All eyes were on Brink as she headed into Crypto.com Arena for her first game in 13 months. The former Stanford star went for a sleek all-black ensemble in her comeback. Brink wore a cropped black blazer that featured a deep V neckline. She paired it with a high-waisted black midi skirt and classic black pointed-toe heels.
Eight teams make the WNBA playoffs, and the teams currently occupying the seventh through 10th seeds are all separated by a mere 1.5 games. Those four squads are also all in action tonight, with two of them squaring off at 10 p.

During her rehab, Brink reportedly described the support network around her as “a whole village,” with several athletes offering encouragement, most notably, Denver Nuggets guard Jamal Murray, himself a New Balance athlete who returned from a season‑ending ACL tear in 2021.
The Sparks have not made the playoffs since 2020, which is not only the longest postseason drought in franchise history, but the longest active one in the league. Last season was a new low. They recorded the fewest wins in a season in franchise history and finished in last place at 8-32.
