Pierre Haessig / WNBA (DR)

A true phenomenon on the WNBA planet, Cameron Brink has already had the opportunity to rub shoulders with several NBA stars, including Kawhi Leonard. The Clippers winger left a strong impression on her during their meeting that she ended up revealing.

While she may be less well-known and followed than the prodigy Caitlin Clark, she nonetheless embodies the future of the WNBA.

The 2nd pick in the 2024 Draft, Cameron Brink seems destined for a brilliant career in the women’s league.

A destiny that actually seemed clear when she was ruling the roost in the NCAA rackets with Stanford University. This has put her in the spotlight very early on.

Cameron Brink gets honest about Kawhi Leonard’s behind-the-scenes attitude

Holder of a rare talent, Brink also has the particularity of being part of Stephen Curry’s circle of close friends.

Goddaughter of the Chef’s mother, she has therefore always been able to benefit from the latter’s support, including during a funny FaceTime after his draft .

However, she is not the only NBA star she knows well, since she has already met a certain… Kawhi Leonard:

Sponsored by New Balance since August 2023, the interior has since displayed a common point with Leonard . The two quickly saw their paths cross during a shoot for the brand, which the young woman is not likely to forget anytime soon. As part of a passage in the Podcast P by Paul George, she returned to this experience by revealing the true nature of Kawhi:

Cameron Brink: The funniest thing about this shoot was Kawhi. He’s f***ing funny! Seriously, he’s funny. In fact, the New Balance guys were like, “We’ve never seen anyone make him laugh harder than you.” So Kawhi, if you’re watching this, I’m waiting to get my flowers!

Failing to remember the words that prompted The Klaw to perform his robotic laugh, the Sparks nugget remembers those that amused her on his part:

Paul George: People don’t realize that Kawhi is one of the funniest human beings.

Cameron Brink: It’s definitely true! He has a dry sense of humor. He kept saying, “When is this over?” “When are we going home?” “Is this over?” (Laughs)

Like many of Kawhi Leonard’s teammates, Cameron Brink calls the Clippers star one of the funniest people she’s ever met. Yet another testimony that lends credibility to the famous nickname of the Fun Guy.
