Women's basketball star Cameron Brink has revealed one of the biggest dating turn offs that always used to 'irk' her when she was single.

Brink, who has been engaged to longtime boyfriend Ben Felter since September of last year, discussed the topic of icks on the latest episode of her 'Straight To Cam' podcast with Los Angeles Sparks teammate Dearica Hamby and Brooklyn Nets shooting guard Terance Mann.

And the injured Sparks forward didn't hesitate when asked to name hers.

'Maybe it's the Stanford girl in me, but grammar is very important to me,' Brink told Hamby and Mann. 'And if I see something with bad grammar, or someone misspells something, it really irks me.'

Fortunately Brink doesn't have to worry about stumbling upon any icks after finding loce with Felter, a former Stanford rower she met while at the university together.

The couple are believed to have started dating back in 2021, three years before Ben popped the question on a rooftop terrace at the five-star Shangri-La Hotel in Paris.

The LA Sparks forward no longer needs to worry after getting engaged to boyfriend Ben Felter

Cameron, who was the No. 2 pick overall in last year's WNBA Draft, has been sidelined since she tore her ACL in a game back in June 2024.

Although the exact date is still uncertain, the Sparks are hopeful that she will return before the start of August, head coach Lynne Roberts revealed this week.

Last month Brink offered an angry response to a fan who accused her of prioritizing 'red carpets and schmoozing' over her injury rehab.

With the forward yet to play for LA this season, one fan suggested on social media that her focus was in the wrong place.

'She should've been back on the court now, and something tells me that if she put as much work into rehab as she puts into walking down red carpets and schmoozing, she'd be back by now,' the fan wrote, which Brink shared to her Instagram story.

The commenter also claimed Brink made 'public appearances with no brace, crutches or anything' after her left ACL procedure last year.

And while the former Stanford star claimed she 'usually' doesn't 'give energy to this type of stuff,' she wrote to her 1.4million followers that the user was 'not a real fan.'

'I'm working INCREDIBLY hard every day,' Brink wrote. 'I would give anything to be out on the court right now. Basketball is my passion and everything to me… to say this you aren't a real fan.

'Thank you to those who understand ACLs can take a year & giving me grace. I cannot wait until I get to play again.'
