Bitter, Angry WNBA Player DiJonai Carrington Can't Stop Obsessing Over Caitlin Clark
Connecticut Sun guard DiJonai Carrington is now a relatively well-known WNBA player, due to her one-sided feud with Caitlin Clark. Carrington hard-fouled Clark last month and then suggested Clark was a racist for not standing up for the black women targeting her.
DiJonai Carrington is a bit much.
Wednesday, Carrington caterwauled over Clark throwing a "get out of my face" push at a player on Washington. "But I’m a racist, jealous, coon, monkey, hatin a** b**** who needs to go back to Africa when I do it huh?😂😂😂😂😂 plssss," posted Carrington.
Here is Clark's "push," if that's what we are calling it:
Now, for some #InconvenientFacts.
First, Carrington's shove of Clark was more egregious than Clark's shove of Julie Vanloo.
Second, the story was that Carrington mocked Clark as a "flopper" her hard foul, not the hard foul itself:
Those damn pesky facts.
In a follow-up post, Carrington accused Clark's fans of hating on her over the foul:
Again, that's not accurate.
Clark's fans dislike Carrington because she posted on social media that it's Clark's responsibility to defend Chennedy Carter. Carter hip-checked Clark, called her a "bitch" on the court, and liked tweets encouraging her to injure Clark severely.
Other than that, Clark has no reason to be wary of Carter.
"Dawg. How one can not be bothered by their name being used to justify racism, bigotry, misogyny, xenophobia, homophobia & the intersectionalities of them all is nuts," posted Carrington. "We all see the sh*t. We all have a platform. We all have a voice & they all hold weight. Silence is a luxury."
According to Carrington, the black women trying to hurt Clark are not the bullies. Clark is the bully for not telling her fans to stop noticing the black women trying to hurt her.
Got all that?
Further, Carrington has brought social media criticism upon herself. In addition to slandering Clark, Carrington has repeatedly posted racially-charged messages to her X account.
Here are a few:
Are you black?
If not, DiJonai Carrington says you are a joke.
Carrington's disdain towards Caitlin Clark can be summed up quite simply:
Clark is the biggest star in women's basketball. Black media pundits tell their audiences that Clark is more popular than black players because fans are partial to white women. That, of course, is not true – as the numbers can confirm. However, black players hear that, believe that, and resent Clark for that.
Carrington is one of them.
DiJonai Carrington portrays herself, Angel Reese, and Chennedy Carter as victims of racial bigotry. They are not. They are the perpetrators of racial bigotry.
