Los Angeles Sparks players upgraded on injury report

The Los Angeles Sparks are set to receive significant roster reinforcements as Cameron Brink, Erica Wheeler, and Monique Akoa Makani have been upgraded to probable on the team’s injury report. The availability of these players comes as the Sparks prepare to host the Atlanta Dream following a difficult stretch.

Prior to these updates, the Sparks suffered a 85-76 loss to the Connecticut Sun, marking their sixth consecutive defeat. The team struggled during that matchup due to being shorthanded, with the bench contributing only eight points and the team shooting poorly from beyond the arc.

Erica Wheeler, the team’s primary starting point guard, had been sidelined with an ankle injury, while Cameron Brink had missed two games due to a rib injury. Newly acquired Monique Akoa Makani was also sidelined with an ankle injury. The return of these players is seen as a critical step for the Sparks as they attempt to return to the win column.
