Comments on the post

Cardoso and Team Brazil faced Argentina in the first game of the FIBA AmeriCup on Saturday. They registered a 21-point win in the opening game. The WNBA star registered eight points, 11 rebounds, four assists and two blocks in the game.

The FIBA AmeriCup is scheduled from 28th June to 6th July, which means that Kamilla Cardoso is set to miss at least a week of action in the Sky jersey. During this stretch, the Sky will play at least three games without one of their best players.

Kamilla Cardoso scored career-high before leaving for the AmeriCup

In her sophomore season, Kamilla Cardoso has shown glimpses of why she was one of the most hyped up players in the 2024 WNBA draft. Under head coach Tyler Marsh, Cardoso has more freedom to operate on the scoring end, and she has been simply outstanding.

Earlier this week, in a win against the LA Sparks, Cardoso registered her career-high 27 points in 30 minutes. She made 66.7% of her shots, including one of her three-point attempts. The Sky center also registered seven rebounds, three assists and two blocks in the game.

Compared to last season, Kamilla Cardoso has logged four fewer minutes this season, but she is averaging almost three more points. She has been attempting more shots this season and even converting at a higher percentage (56.1% this season, compared to 52.1% last season). The Sky star has already had two 20-point games and five games with 15 or more points.
