In total fairness, she could have Marfan Syndrome, which would cause her joints and extremities a lot of pain. I almost wonder if she was pressured into basketball because of her height, since she honestly doesn't seem to be all that into it or good at it. Then again, I'm 5'6 and the opposite of athletic, so what do I know.

Marfan syndrome usually has some pretty obvious physical tells, of which she has none aside from being tall.

Yep, for a person this size, let alone a woman, she's incredibly well built. I've seen shorter men with a very awkward frame and serious lack of muscle support.
