As Los Angeles Sparks fans know, Candace Parker is an important piece in the team’s winning recipe.
This past Friday, fans of the Fox television show “Hell’s Kitchen” got to see if the 2016 WNBA champion could cook up a victory at Gordon Ramsay’s Las Vegas restaurant.

As this episode aired, it came down to the final five. It turned out (spoilers following), Parker was paired with Michelle. The other athletes were former NBA player Reggie Miller (Robyn), former NFL players Ricky Williams (Milly) and Shawne Merriman (Benjamin), and Olympian Jordyn Wieber (Nick), who also were paired with their respective contestants.
Eventually, the winner this episode was Michelle, who not only got to take in a view of Los Angeles and also got to choose the two contestants that were to be up for elimination.
After preparing their foods and gearing up for a dinner service that would have another special guest in Wyclef Jean, Michelle chose Robyn and Milly, who noticeably had some less-than-friendly run-ins throughout the course of this episode.
Eventually, Robyn’s struggles during the dinner service did her in and she was eliminated from Hell’s Kitchen. But she did not depart from Ramsay’s eatery without sending words of “encouragement” in Milly’s direction.
I’ll see you on the street, Milly.
Yeeouch! Talk about a dish served piping hot…
