To Reproduce

When signing in with Google OAuth, the user's profile image is not being imported into the user record. The image field remains null in the database after successful authentication.

Steps to Reproduce

  1. Set up Google OAuth with valid credentials
  2. Configure better-auth with Google provider
  3. Sign in using the Google OAuth option
  4. Check user record in database - image field is null

Code Configuration

export const auth = betterAuth({
  database: prismaAdapter(prisma, {
    provider: "postgresql",
  }),
  socialProviders: {
    google: {
      clientId: process.env.GOOGLE_CLIENT_ID as string,
      clientSecret: process.env.GOOGLE_CLIENT_SECRET as string,
    },
  }
});

### Database Schema
```prisma
model User {
  id            String    @id
  name          String
  email         String
  emailVerified Boolean
  image         String?   // This field remains null after Google sign-in
  createdAt     DateTime
  updatedAt     DateTime
  // ... other fields
}

### Current vs. Expected behavior

### Expected Behavior
The user's Google profile image URL should be stored in the `image` field of the User record after successful Google OAuth authentication.

### Actual Behavior
The `image` field remains null after successful Google OAuth authentication, while other fields like name and email are properly populated.


### What version of Better Auth are you using?

1.1.18

### Provide environment information

```bash
### Environment
- better-auth version: 1.1.18
- Database: PostgreSQL

import emailService from "@/services/email.service";

export const auth = betterAuth({
  database: prismaAdapter(prisma, {
    provider: "postgresql",
  }),
  emailAndPassword: {
    enabled: true,
  },
  socialProviders: {
    google: {
      clientId: process.env.GOOGLE_CLIENT_ID as string,
      clientSecret: process.env.GOOGLE_CLIENT_SECRET as string,
    },
  },
  emailVerification: {
    sendVerificationEmail: async ({ user, url, token }, request) => {
      await emailService.sendVerificationEmail(user.email, url);
    },
  },
  plugins: [admin({ impersonationSessionDuration: 60 * 60 })],
});

Additional Context

I am currently testing google Oauth in localhost (maybe this is the reason)
