WNBA star Cameron Brink lands Sports Illustrated swimsuit deal
Cameron Brink, one of the WNBA’s new stars, has joined the lineup the 2025 Sports illustrated Swimsuit problem.
The 22-year-old, the second overall pick in the 2024 draft, has previously said she dreamed of working with the iconic magazine.
“I’ve always loved SI Swimsuit,” she told Paul George earlier this year. “I think it’s super empowering.”
Brink is part of a star-studded cast of female stars in the 2025 issue, including Olympians Gabby Thomas, Suni Lee and Jordan Chiles, as well as world No. 1 golfer Nelly Korda.
The Los Angeles Sparks star joined her fellow athletes on the beach in Boca Raton, Florida for the photo shoot.

“We are excited to launch our shoot season for the 2025 issue with an extraordinary lineup of powerful female athletes,” said MJ Day, editor of SI Swimsuit.
“This remarkable group, made up of Olympic medalists, world champions and record holders, embodies the next generation of all-stars poised to transform the world of sports.
“They defy stereotypes and advocate for equality, inspiring young girls to see themselves as athletes and leaders.
“At SI Swimming, we have always celebrated the future of women, and there is no better way to honor these remarkable achievements than by featuring them in the pages of our issue.”

Brink’s rookie season in Los Angeles was cut short after she suffered a torn ACL in her left knee. The injury also ruled her out of the Paris Olympics.
Thomas, meanwhile, took home two gold medals for Team USA in Paris, winning the gold in the 200 meters and helping America win the 4×100 meter relay.
In gymnastics, Lee won gold in the team competition and bronze in both the individual all-around and uneven bars. Chiles controversially missed bronze in the floor exercise, but did help the U.S. win gold in the team final.
Korda cemented himself as the best golfer in the world in 2024 with victory at the Women’s British Open and the Chevron Championship.
