DiJonai Carrington gifted Marina Mabrey cooking seasonings in sweet but hysterical gesture
Dijonai Carrington gifted Marina Mabrey with cooking seasonings because friends don’t let friends suffer.
DiJonai and Marina have been cool since the latter was traded to the Connecticut Sun last year. Their enemies-to-friends redemption story is one of the best in sports, producing some pretty wholesome content. And the terrific shenanigans have continued now that both are down in Miami preparing for Unrivaled’s first season.
As you might expect, players have downtime when not training or practicing, which means things will be cooked. Marina shared a Gif photo to X (formerly Twitter) of her, uh, “spices,” thinking she was ready to throw down in the kitchen. But DiJonai had to intervene because Y’ALL. Marina had avocado oil spray, pepper and Himalayan pink salt. THAT’S IT.
BAHAHAHAHAHAHA dawg, I spit my drink out. wtf are you making with these 3 things bro???
i gotta getchu right omg https://t.co/3RXc8t0sQW— dιjonaι carrιngтon♛ (@DijonaiVictoria) January 10, 2025
Hours later, DiJonai shared a video of her gifting Marina some proper seasonings. “Alright, y’all. I had to run to the store and get my girl right!” Just a little starter pack,” Dijonai said.
I truly appreciate this I’m gonna have to make a video of my next meal lol https://t.co/LWqg1WIaJ2

Once Marina had her seasoning starter kit, she was ready to go. First, she tried eggs and then some pasta, which she shared with DiJonai.

News of her pasta found its way to Angel Reese, who provided some hysterical commentary that said the quiet parts out loud.
“Do you know I thought those were frosted flakes?” she told Marina.

Unfortunately, DiJonai won’t have Marina’s pasta either because she accidentally left it in a locker.

Maybe we’ll get more food adventures soon.
This is the kind of content we need in out lives. Marina versus the cooking seasonings is an underrated Unrivaled subplot. 10/10. No notes.
