The 6-foot-8 four-time All-Star center is yet another piece in what has been a major rebuild for GM/coach Derek Fisher
“It’s always been my dream to wear the purple and gold and play in L.A.,” Cambage, 30, said in a news release. “This is an incredible opportunity to compete for a championship alongside Nneka , Kristi , and a deep, talented team. I’m grateful to Coach Fisher and the Sparks ownership group for their player-first approach and commitment to winning on and off the court.In five WNBA seasons, the outspoken and sometimes provocative Cambage averaged 16.3 points, 7.7 rebounds, 1.5 assists, and 1.
Fisher – who is 49-39 in three seasons as the Sparks’ coach – said in the release that the organization is thrilled about the Cambage signing, which was for $170,000, below the maximum, in order to ease its salary cap burden and allow the team to carry 12 players, according to a source. She will wear a new yet-to-be determined number and not her customary No. 8 in L.A., in deference to DeLisha Milton-Jones, the Sparks great who wore that number when she helped lead them to consecutive titles in 2001 and ’02.
On Thursday, Carter said in her introductory video conference that she would love to play with Cambage.
