Dearica Hamby replaces injured Sparks teammate Cameron Brink on US Olympic 33 team
Dearica Hamby has been named to the U.S. Olympic 3x3 women's basketball team for the 2024 Paris Olympics.
Hamby will replace Cameron Brink, her injured Los Angeles Sparks teammate, on the team, USA Basketball announced on Monday.
“I’m honored to be chosen to represent the United States at the Paris Olympics and excited to compete for a gold medal,” Hamby said in a statement.
Brink was named to the 3x3 team for the Paris Games earlier this month, joining Rhyne Howard, Hailey Van Lith and Cierra Burdick. The Sparks rookie then tore her ACL last week during the Sparks' loss to the Connecticut Sun, ending her first WNBA season and taking her out of Olympic contention.
