The message worked its magic.

Los Angeles Sparks star center/power forward Cameron Brink has been one of the most popular players in the WNBA since she entered the competition as the No. 2 pick in 2024. The Stanford product has made a lot of fans thanks to her on-court talents and her beauty.

Early in February, she sent fans into a frenzy with a bold all-red outfit that highlighted her legs. Photos and videos of the outfit quickly went viral on social media.

While she has drawn plenty of male attention, Brink’s heart has been taken for several years now. The star has been engaged to Ben Felter since September 2024, when he proposed in front of the Eiffel Tower. What ended up as a wholesome love story had a unique beginning.

Brink shared a screenshot of Ben Felter’s first message. Instead of the usual slide to her DMs, Felter opted to contact her through email to give her his phone number.

“Hey Cameron, Wanted to chat you up but I think DMs are a bit creepy. Not than an email is much better, but here is my number,” Felter wrote.

As unique as it was, it did help Felter land Brink, one of the most popular players in women’s basketball. He was with her during her college career, the toughest moment of her still young WNBA career, and also when she returned to the court.

Camero Brink played 19 games in 2026, averaging 5.1 points, 4.3 rebounds and 1.4 blocks per game in 12.9 minutes per outing. She joined Unrivaled’s Breeze for the 3-on-3 league’s second season. Brink played 13 games, averaging 10.9 point, 6.2 rebounds and 1.8 blocks per game in 11.8 minutes per encounter.
