Lewis won the bet. [4] At the end of the season, Lewis attended a costume party at Marianna Tolo and Carly Wilson's house with the rest of her teammates to celebrate their WNBL Championship win. [5]

In 2010, Lewis played for the Canberra Nationals in the Waratah League. [11] She was joined by several of her Canberra Capitals teammates including Lauren Jansen, Chantella Perera, Kellie Abrams and Nicki Graham. [12] In the team's fourth victory of the season, a 62 to 53 win against the Hornsby Spiders, Lewis led the team with 20 points and 8 rebounds.
