Coach Dawn Staley has some special words for Kamilla Cardoso as she goes to WNBA: Still and always proud of you Kamilla!
Just weeks ago, South Carolina women’s basketball forward Kamilla Cardoso and LSU star Angel Reese found themselves on opposite sides of a heated battle during the SEC championship game, a contest that ended with Cardoso’s suspension for the first round of the NCAA Tournament.
Fast forward to today, and the narrative has taken a remarkable turn. The two standout forwards from the SEC now find themselves as teammates in the WNBA.
In a twist of fate, both Cardoso and Reese were selected by the Chicago Sky in the 2024 WNBA Draft, with Cardoso going third overall and Reese following closely behind as the seventh overall pick in the first round.
Despite their recent on-court clash, there seems to be no lingering animosity between the two competitors.
“I think it’s going to be great,” Cardoso expressed to reporters on Monday. “She’s a great player, I’m a great player, so two great players together. Nobody’s going to get no rebounds on us.”
This remarkable turn of events highlights the camaraderie and sportsmanship that transcends the boundaries of competition. As Cardoso and Reese set aside their collegiate rivalries to join forces in the WNBA, fans can anticipate an exciting partnership that promises to elevate the Chicago Sky to new heights.
