Cameron Brink named to the 2023 USA Women's 3x3 World Cup Team
Stanford's Cameron Brink is about two months removed from being named Pac-12 Defensive Player of the Year for the second year in a row, and now she can add another feather to her cap.
The two-time Associated Press All-America team member and champion is one of the most decorated athletes in the country, and will have another opportunity to partake in a prestigious event as she was named to the 2023 USA Women's 3x3 World Cup Team.
Brink and the three other players were set to compete at the 2023 FIBA 3x3 World Cup May 30-June 4 in Vienna, Austria. The teams were picked by the respective men’s and women’s USA Basketball 3x3 National Team committees. This is not Brink's first time representing Team USA, as she won 5-on-5 gold medals at the 2018 FIBA U17 and 2019 FIBA U19 women’s world cups.
The American women are set to open in Pool C, and play their first game May 30, against Canada at 7 a.m. ET and Hungary at 9 a.m. ET.
Joining Brink on the team is Cierra Burdick who graduated from Tennessee in 2015 and spent time in the WNBA with a handful of teams, Linnae Harper who played at Kentucky and Ohio State before being spending some time with a couple of WNBA teams, and LSU star Hailey Van Lith who similar to Brink is one of the best players at the college level.
