Her 2025 season was cut short, though the Fever mounted a strong playoff run that pushed eventual champions Las Vegas Aces to the brink.<\/p>\n<p>During her rehab, she said she\u2019s become more mindful of her diet, noticing sensitivities to pork, beef and high-gluten foods.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>&#8220;The ones I really am like worried about is the dairy and gluten,\u201d she said. \u201cI&#8217;m not kidding, that&#8217;s in every meal that I eat. I put cheese on everything. It&#8217;s like one of my favorite things. So, maybe that&#8217;s what&#8217;s wrong with me. I don&#8217;t know. But maybe I really am about to get fit and live my best life.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<blockquote><p>\u201cAnd I know they make gluten-free stuff, but that s**t tastes weird to me. I can still eat chicken, though. That\u2019s good. \u2026 I feel like I\u2019m kind of turning into a rabbit. So, I don\u2019t know. guess I\u2019m going to turn into a Victoria\u2019s Secret model.
