WARRIORS PRACTICE FACILITY, OAKLAND, CA — Golden State Warriors training camp invitee Ben Gordon tried a vegan diet over the summer, but is back to eating meat as he prepares for the NBA season.
“As you get older you just try to see different things that work for you,” said Gordon. “I’m not using it right now, but I’m kinda using it functionally depending on how my body feels. With all the running and stuff, protein is hard to come by.”
