The 22-year-old has even caught the attention of Miami Heat’s Jimmy Butler, who reportedly flew all the way to LA once to show his support. Unfortunately, now with Brink on the sidelines because of a severe injury, a renowned sportscaster took an unusual stance and ‘blamed’ the NBA star for inflicting his ‘curse’ on her. A few hours ago, Stephen A. Smith touched base on Cameron Brink’s injury on his YouTube show, offering his “condolences” and wishing her his best. At the same time, however, he unexpectedly, yet jokingly, brought up Jimmy’s name. “Jimmy Butler man, you went out there to visit her, and then all of a sudden she got hurt,” said Smith. However, he immediately clarified with a slight smile on his face, “I’m only playing, I’m only playing, bro. Not joking about her injury at all, just teasing Jimmy Butler a little bit. That’s my man. But nothing but the best for Cameron Brink”. She sustained a torn ACL in her left knee during a recent matchup against the Connecticut Sun. After being carried back to the locker room, she took to social media to reveal that the seriousness of the injury would cause her to be out for the rest of her rookie season in the WNBA.

Brink’s unexpected situation comes just a few months after Jimmy Butler himself was sidelined during the final stages of the regular season because of a torn MCL. While the Miami Heat managed to reach the playoffs, the lead scorer’s absence did not allow them to go much further, causing their run to be ended within the first round. Butler never got the chance to return to the court for the remaining games, just like Cameron Brink, who will also be out for the remainder of the season.
