I found the ESPN long feature on her where she is quoted as pissed at the WNBA for over-marketing her as a straight white girl.YellowSnow said:

The attention that comes with being the No. 1 pick only added to the pressure Plum experienced at Washington. "Let's be real," Plum says. "It doesn't help that I'm straight. I'm white. I'm probably, to that point, one of the most overhyped, overmarketed college players that we've seen in the national spotlight. And then all of a sudden I come into the W and everyone wants to just kill you."

During her first season, Plum started 23 of the 31 games she played and averaged 8.5 points and 3.4 assists in 22.9 minutes. She made the WNBA All-Rookie team, though Allisha Gray, the No. 4 pick at Dallas, was named Rookie of the Year. It wasn't a dominant debut season by any metric, but Plum still saw her face promoting her team and her league and felt it was undeserved. She blocked the WNBA on social media. She has said that she still has the league blocked today.
"They were trying to milk everything out of me in my rookie year and it was brutal," Plum says. "I wasn't ready for it. I didn't want it. I just wanted to, like, play basketball. My rookie year, man, it was worse than picking up the dog poop for sure."
Now I've heard it all

So on a couple of random side notes...some years back I was sitting in suite of downtown Seattle hotel talking to a then WNBA head corch about Kelsey's rookie season and where she needed to grow her game. We also talked about the lesbian dominance of the sport professionally, but never touched on Kelsey's straightness for whatever reason.
Also, Kelsey and I both lived in the same San Diego suburb of Poway, CA (different HS's though). @RaceBannon knows where Poway is and probably laid some carpets there or some shit. -

For research purposes, her friend in the beach pic is Bri Ruiz-Bishop, another former Dawg WBB player. She's also married to Braden Bishop, formerly of the Mariners now with the Giants? I think.YellowSnow said: -

Family lived in Poway and I spent every quarter break during UW days on San Diego beaches pretending I was from Arizona.
It worked back then.
Also: Plum is a lot hotter now than she used to be. And she sucks at marketing. -
