Chennedy Carter isn’t just dominating basketball courts—she’s conquering food menus and shopping malls halfway across the globe. The Chicago Sky star, fresh off a stellar WNBA season, has taken her talents to China to play for Wuhan Shengfan, and she’s making sure everyone knows she’s living the dream. From mouthwatering meals to fan-interactive free-agency teasers, Carter’s overseas adventure is equal parts sport and spectacle.
“Yes, I’m Fat and Can Eat”—Carter’s Hilarious Food Diary
Forget calorie counting—Carter is in full-on culinary bliss. Over the weekend, the guard turned her Instagram story into a Michelin-style review board, showcasing a feast that would make any foodie jealous. Her plate featured a mix of decadence: pasta, lamb chops, a California roll, rainbow cake, and a brownie.
But Carter didn’t stop at eating. She rated each dish with the precision of a seasoned food critic.
- Pasta: A near-perfect 9/10. A crowd-pleaser, no doubt.
- Lamb Chops: A flawless 10/10. Clearly, Wuhan’s chefs don’t miss.
- Brownie: Also 10/10. Chocolate always wins, doesn’t it?
- Rainbow Cake: A respectable 7/10. Points for style, perhaps?
- California Roll: 6.5/10. Apparently, sushi isn’t for everyone.
And her verdict? A witty caption to cap it off: “Yes, I’m fat and can eat.”
Her honesty is as refreshing as it is relatable. Chennedy Carter isn’t just a basketball star; she’s now a foodie influencer in the making.
Shopping Sprees and Free-Agency Hints
When she’s not busy rating brownies, Carter is indulging in some serious retail therapy. Pictures from her social media show her strolling through Wuhan’s bustling markets, bags in hand, as she embraces her overseas stint with style and flair.
But basketball fans have more to chew on than Carter’s meal reviews. The WNBA free agency is around the corner, and Carter is keeping her next move tantalizingly vague. On November 23, she dropped a post on Threads, inviting fans to play armchair GM:
“Let’s chat!!! Drop the WNBA teams you would like to see me sign with next year 🤭 Y’all be coaches and GMs anyways lol let’s see what you think!!”
Is it a playful tease? A not-so-subtle hint that she’s eyeing a change of scenery? Either way, fans are buzzing.
From Adversity to Stardom: Carter’s Journey
Carter’s path to the top hasn’t been smooth. Drafted by the Atlanta Dream in 2020, she showed promise in her rookie season but hit a rough patch in 2021 with a suspension over “conduct detrimental to the team.” She was traded to the LA Sparks in 2022, only to see her minutes plummet.
Taking a year off in 2023, Carter returned with a vengeance in 2024, joining the Chicago Sky and putting up career-best numbers: 17.5 points, 3.5 rebounds, 3.1 assists, and 1.1 steals in just 26 minutes per game.
Now, with free agency looming, Carter’s stock is at an all-time high. But will the Sky pony up to keep their offensive leader, or will another franchise swoop in with a lucrative offer?
What’s Next for Chennedy Carter?
For now, Carter seems content with her life in China, balancing basketball, gastronomy, and a dash of wanderlust. But when February rolls around, the WNBA could see a major shake-up if Carter decides to take her talents elsewhere.
Until then, fans can enjoy her candid updates and hope their team makes her shortlist. One thing’s for sure: Chennedy Carter knows how to keep the spotlight on her—on and off the court.
