Chicago Sky guard DiJonai Carrington has become the focus of attention in the WNBA after accusing her ex-girlfriend, Las Vegas Aces forward NaLyssa Smith, of cheating with multiple players in the league. Carrington shared these allegations on social media, leading to significant public interest.
DiJonai Carrington has previously made headlines for incidents such as poking Fever star Caitlin Clark in the eye and postgame confrontations with veteran journalist Christine Brennan, showcasing her controversial presence in the league.
During a game between the Dallas Wings and the Chicago Sky on May 31, 2025, Carrington and Smith met on the court, highlighting their longstanding relationship that dates back to their college days at Baylor.

The accusations made by Carrington contrast sharply with the previously harmonious image she and Smith presented. Their relationship began at Baylor and continued into their WNBA careers, with a brief stint as teammates on the Dallas Wings before Smith’s trade to the Las Vegas Aces.
When their breakup was publicly announced, Carrington stated they had “grew in different directions,” offering a more amicable explanation.
As of now, Smith, Deja Kelly, and Aaliyah Nye have not publicly addressed these accusations. Carrington is set to face them in upcoming matches with the Sky hosting the Aces on August 1 and a game against the Dream on September 19.
