NEW YORK (AP) — Dearica Hamby will replace injured Los Angeles Sparks teammate Cameron Brink on the U.S. 3×3 Olympic basketball team.

Brink tore the ACL in her left knee last week while playing in a WNBA game against the Connecticut Sun.

Hamby joins Hailey Van Lith, Cierra Burdick and Rhyne Howard on the squad that will compete at the Paris Games next month. The U.S. won the inaugural 3×3 Olympic gold medal in Tokyo in 2021.
