WNBA's DiJonai Carrington gets special gift for Marina Mabrey to help cooking skills

In this story:
If there is one thing we have learned about the WNBA stars currently preparing for the inaugural season of Unrivaled, a highly-anticipated 3x3 women's basketball league launching this month in Miami, it's that they are having a lot of fun.
DiJonai Carrington and Connecticut Sun teammate Marina Mabrey are among the players in Florida gearing up for the league, and a hilarious exchange on social media brought another viral moment.
Mabrey, who has been living her best life in Miami, took to social media to show she "can finally cook" with the bare basics of salt, pepper, and avocado oil.

Later in the night, Carrington caught up with Mabrey with a special delivery.
