Move over, basketball—Cameron Brink just hit another slam dunk, and this time, it wasn’t on the hardwood but on the sandy shores of Boca Raton. The Stanford star and WNBA rising sensation just dropped jaws (again) by gracing the cover of the 2025 Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Issue, sending the internet into an absolute frenzy. Apparently, being a basketball star wasn’t enough for the 22-year-old phenom—now, she’s aiming to take over the modeling world, too. Somebody call NASA, because Brink is on another planet right now.
It’s safe to say Cameron’s Insta post showcasing her in a white bikini at sunset hit like a game-winning three-pointer, with friends, family, and an army of fans flooding her comments. One of the first to react was none other than Steph Curry’s sister, Sydel Curry, who seemed to have lost her ability to speak actual words, commenting: “😮💨😮💨😮💨🔥.” (Translation: the universal language of speechless.)
A Supermodel in the Making? Say Less
And it wasn’t just the Curry family losing their minds. LSU gymnast and fellow SI Swimsuit model Olivia Dunne—who knows a thing or two about breaking the internet—couldn’t help but fangirl, typing out a whole-hearted “Omggggg.” Tennis prodigy Coco Gauff joined the hype train with an over-the-top, emoji-laden, “😍😍😍 yessss!”
Even Indiana Fever star Lexie Hull hit the comment section, practically combusting with excitement: “Cammmmmm 🤯.” Yes, Lexie, we’re right there with you. WNBA players Dearica Hamby and Lexie Brown, along with social media influencers like Ellie Thumann and Olivia Ponton, all piled on with the digital applause. It was a celebrity roll call of epic proportions.
And because this moment wasn’t big enough already, even American middle-distance runner Emma Coburn had to hop in the comments to express her love for Brink’s latest flex. It’s almost like Cameron Brink planned to hijack everyone’s week with this drop—genius move.
From Hoops to Haute Couture
Now, let’s be real. Brink wasn’t exactly a stranger to fashion before this iconic SI moment. This past July, she graced the cover of Flaunt magazine like she was born for it. In October, she strutted her way through Paris Fashion Week as Balenciaga’s special guest (because, of course, she did), and now she’s teaming up with Urban Decay in a multi-year deal. To think this is all happening while she’s still dominating the basketball court. Someone get us whatever Cameron is having, because she’s clearly unstoppable.
Sports Illustrated editor-in-chief MJ Day couldn’t help but gush over Brink, labeling her as “Brains. Beauty. Talent. Kindness.” Day went on to shower Brink with more love, saying, “You’re a whole different level of excellence… The world needs more Cams.” Apparently, Day’s dictionary definition of “excellence” is just a picture of Cameron in a bikini.
What’s Next? Space, Maybe?
With basketball, modeling, and now corporate deals under her belt, is there anything Brink can’t do? Rumor has it she’s planning to take over the universe next. (Not confirmed yet, but would you really be surprised?)
So what’s the lesson here? When you’re Cameron Brink, the sky’s not the limit—it’s just the next stop on your way to world domination. Stay tuned, because something tells us this is just the beginning of her take-over-the-globe tour. Maybe she’ll show up to her next WNBA game in a swimsuit? With Cameron, anything’s possible.
