Probably one of the most controversial figures in women’s basketball Elizabeth Cambage headlines herself again. In a monumental deal, the 4× WNBA All-Star has reassociated herself again with Chinese professional basketball powerhouse, Sichuan Yuanda Basketball Club. Moreover, one of the interesting specifics of her contract states that she is entitled to receive more than $1 million for her commitment to the franchise. Following this, some eminent WNBA names are coming forward to express their reactions to this exciting development. One of them happens to be Chicago’s fierce No.7 Chennedy Carter.

It didn’t take much time for the 25-year-old to involve herself in Cambage’s latest professional endeavor. Popular basketball media platform Swish Cultures made the first official announcement of this news. They shared it as a post captioned, “Liz Cambage re-signs with @sc.yuanda in China for $1M+ ✍️👀 it”. Soon after, Carter decided to showcase her excitement by using the post in one of her stories.

Cambage parted ways with Los Angeles Spark in July 2022 while criticizing the WNBA for its low salaries. But, it was not long before she made her basketball comeback in China when she signed a deal for three months with the Chinese team Sichuan. The contract was worth $1 million.

Even as a part of the Women’s Chinese Basketball Association, Cambage manages to find her fair share of troubles. Earlier this year, she faced an ejection on the back of two flagrant fouls in the WCBA Finals against Inner Mongolia. The incidents involved her knocking an opposition player down by hitting her on the face and upper neck. After this, she contested a rebound with an unsavory elbow. In addition to this, she also lashed out at the officials on her way out.
