The No. 2 pick in the 2024 WNBA draft, Brink got off to a strong start in her rookie year before she injured her knee on June 18 in a game against the Connecticut Sun. Prior to going down, she averaged 7.5 points, 5.3 rebounds, 1.7 assists, 1.1 steals and 2.3 blocks across 15 games.

Brink was 1 for 3 and made a pair of free throws on Tuesday night while playing 13 minutes, with three rebounds, an assist, a steal, a block and a turnover in an 89-74 loss to the Las Vegas Aces that snapped the Sparks’ five-game winning streak.
