Stephen Curry, the four-time NBA champion and star of the Golden State Warriors, didn’t waste time hyping up his god-sister Cameron Brink, the standout player from Stanford University, after she declared for the 2024 WNBA draft. The Warriors star sounded elated as he delivered a heartfelt message to the Stanford senior.
“Hey Cam, just want to say congratulations,” Curry said (via espnW on X).
“Huge huge announcement, huge milestone, huge accomplishment. Prepare youself for the WNBA draft.
“But I know you still got some unfinished business in the NCAA tournament, but take a moment to pat yourself on the back for a job well done to get to this point.
The best is yet to come. I can’t wait to see where your career takes you. WNBA listen. League her!”
