Cambage, Fisher's prized free-agent signing who vocally declared that L.A. had always been her ultimate WNBA playing destination, abruptly left the Sparks on Tuesday as the team announced a "contract divorce." "It is with support that we share Liz Cambage's decision to terminate her contract with the organization," Sparks managing partner Eric Holoman said in a statement. The Sparks lost 84-66, getting swept in the four-game season series by the WNBA's second-place team. Chiney Ogwumike's resurgent season gives the Sparks a frontcourt option without Cambage, but Ogwumike's everyday availability is a concern. Cambage is the WNBA's second high-profile "contract divorce" this season after center Tina Charles split from Phoenix last month.
