Cameron Brink isn’t just making noise on the court with the Los Angeles Sparks, she’s now grabbing attention in the fashion world.
The 6-foot-4 WNBA rookie has landed on the cover of PLAYERS, a new magazine blending the fast pace of sports with high-fashion edge. Brink’s appearance in the debut issue is already stirring conversation, and not just for the bold styling.
With a black backdrop setting the tone, Brink wears a tailored black suit over a gray undershirt, her chest subtly exposed in a look that balances power and allure. She completes the look with black slacks, a gray belt, and white heels, striking a confident stance while holding a vintage cigarette between her lips- an unapologetic nod to old-school swagger.
A Fresh Face At The Crossroads Of Style And Sport
PLAYERS, launching on June 16, brings a fresh vision to the intersection of sport and fashion. Its inaugural spring/summer edition leans into basketball’s cultural influence, with NBA legend Dwyane Wade taking on the role of guest editor. Brink joins a striking lineup of athletes and icons, including a never-before-seen 1998 photo of Michael Jordan, making this first issue a heavyweight debut.
Brink isn’t alone in representing the WNBA. New York Liberty stars Sabrina Ionescu and Breanna Stewart also feature in the issue, photographed in black lace shirts in a striking visual contrast. Ionescu, holding a basketball against her side, faces the camera with intensity, while Stewart’s exposed back offers a quiet strength. Liberty owner Clara Wu Tsai joins them in another shot, turned in profile in a sophisticated black outfit.
The magazine also includes Spike Lee, shown in both black-and-white and color, underscoring the cultural ties between basketball and New York style. In a press release, founder and editor-in-chief Vladimir Restoin Roitfeld explained the editorial direction. “Basketball felt like the right place to start. It’s where the fusion of fashion, culture, and athletic creativity is most visible right now,” he said.
As the WNBA continues to gain momentum, Brink and her peers are redefining what it means to be a modern athlete, both on and off the hardwood.
