South Carolina’s Kamila Cardoso, at 6-foot-7, gets leading role as the latest big for the Gamecocks
Associated PressCOLUMBIA, S.C. — South Carolina’s Kamilla Cardoso has been content the past two years to come off the bench behind one of college basketball’s best in All-American teammate Aliyah Boston. “She’s putting it here,” Staley said of Cardoso’s practices, “the next step is to be dominant every play that she’s on the floor.” That is a jump many have expected since the native of Brazil left her family as a middle-schooler to develop her game in the United States. “I feel like this year she’s going to show the world what Kamilla can do.” Johnson confirmed that meant a few bruises for anyone who took the ball into Cardoso’s area. You’ve got to bet on yourself sometimes.” Cardoso showcased her drive this summer, earning MVP of the FIBA Women’s AmeriCup where she averaged 10.9 points and 8.3 rebounds as she helped Brazil defeat the United States team in the finals that featured Cardoso’s teammate in Johnson.
