The Los Angeles Sparks need plenty of help as they currently reside near the bottom of the WNBA, ranked 10th out of 13 teams with a record of 8-14.

2024 rookie and star forward Cameron Brink tore the anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) in her left knee on June 18, 2024 against the Connecticut Sun, putting an end to a promising rookie season with former coach Curt Miller's team.

On Monday, video surfaced of Brink on the rehab trail as she worked toward a forthcoming return to the professional hoops hardwood.

"#Sparks' Cameron Brink engaging in what looks like pretty strenuous quad extensions on the left side, where she tore her ACL and meniscus," reporter Ira Gorawara wrote on X.

"Per (Sparks head coach) Lynne Roberts, Brink is hopeful to return by the end of July. That leaves just 12 more days and just four more games."

The video was viewed nearly 2,000 times as of Monday afternoon as the rising WNBA star's off-the-court exploits continued to fly under the radar.

Brink recorded averages of 7.5 points per game, 5.3 rebounds per game and 1.1 steals per game with the Sparks in 15 games last season, 22 minutes per game average.

The Sparks have been led by offseason addition Kelsey Plum this season, who is averaging 20.1 points per game. Plum needs help, and Brink could be the person to provide it.
