Two-time WNBA champion Kelsey Plum described the offseason as "tough" in her first public remarks since news of her divorce from New York Giants tight end Darren Waller broke last month. 

In an interview with FOX 5 Vegas’ Paloma Villicana Friday, Plum said the challenges she faced in the offseason, seemingly referencing the divorce, have helped strengthen her both on and off the court.

"The offseason has been tough for me. I mean, I’m sure everyone knows – it’s pretty public. But, for me, I’m super grateful. I think my faith has grown tremendously and, not just that, but I know who I am. You kind of get refined by fire."

"God has given me an incredible life, and I'm truly so grateful for the profound love from my family and friends. One day I'll share my story, today is not that day. Thank you for the grace to process my pain, to forgive and move forward. Today and everyday I will continue to choose joy." 

Online records in Clark County confirm the couple filed for divorce April 23.
