Overview

• Brink revealed on her June 30 Straight to Cam podcast that she was completely nude for portions of a Players magazine shoot.
• She said the presence of only women and LGBTQ+ members on set made nudity “not an issue” and put her at ease.
• The forward likened the shoot’s openness to her time walking around the Sparks’ locker room, reflecting changing norms around athlete self-expression.
• A former No. 2 overall draft pick who missed last season with a torn ACL, Brink made her Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Issue debut earlier this year.
• The 23-year-old said she trusts creative teams’ visions and is open to future collaborations that fuse sports performance with high-fashion artistry.
