This is the version of Kamilla Cardoso that the Chicago Sky have been seeking ever since they drafted the Brazilian center with the No. 3 pick last spring.

Seeing last year’s No. 3 overall pick lead the way Thursday at the United Center with a career-high 23 points in the Sky ’s first win of the season was exciting. The words “more of that, please” definitely came to mind heading into a rematch against the Wings in their neck of the woods. Alas, the point total probably was a mirage.
