What really happened behind the scenes of Cameron Brink's Players magazine shoot On a new episode of Cameron Brink's podcast, 'Straight to Cam,' aired in June 2025, Cameron Brink, 23, spoke openly about posing fully naked during a fashion photo shoot.

'I'm usually pretty open,' she said on the podcast. The discussion happened with her mom, Michelle Brink, and her Los Angeles Sparks teammate, Dearica Hamby. The photo shoot happened earlier in 2025.

Her mother, Michelle, said the photo made people 'do a double take.' But Michelle was shocked to learn during the podcast that her daughter had been completely nude for part of the shoot. 'You were?' she asked in surprise. Cameron Brink laughed and responded, 'Yeah,' adding that it felt no different than walking around in the team's locker room.

She had seen the photos but didn't know Cameron was fully nude during the shoot. Dearica Hamby, 31, also joined the conversation and added her own thoughts. She joked that when walking around the locker room, she usually covers herself. 'I'm not at that comfort level,' she laughed. Michelle agreed, saying she never got used to that as an athlete either. Cameron Brink later mentioned that it might be a generational difference. She also talked about how being open like this is fun and artistic for her. The episode gave fans a new look into how she views body confidence and creativity beyond basketball.
