DiJonai Carrington declares 'White privilege' after ejection for smacking Sophie Cunningham in the face

Dan Dakich breaks down Megan Rapinoe's latest unhinged rant targeting Indiana Fever star Sophie Cunningham and OutKick legend Riley Gaines over their stand to protect women's sports.

Chicago Sky player DiJonai Carrington sent a post on Threads that read "white privilege" and tagged the Indiana Fever after she was ejected from Saturday's game for smacking Sophie Cunningham in the face.

Carrington has previously garnered controversy for poking Cunningham's teammate Caitlin Clark in the eye during the 2024 playoffs, and making controversial statements in the media.

With about two minutes left in the first quarter, Cunningham had the ball and was headed in for a layup. Carrington was on her tail.

Carrington hustled and got to Cunningham in time, but then delivered a brutal shot straight to the Fever star's head.

The incident prompted Cunningham to get back up and scream at Carrington, as referees had to separate the two players.

Upon review, Carrington's foul was upgraded to a flagrant 2 foul, and she was ejected from the game. Carrington then made the post on Threads shortly after her ejection, presumably from the locker room.

Carrington did not elaborate on the post, leaving unclear whether it referred to Cunningham, the officiating decision or the Fever organization. She also did not accuse Cunningham by name, and there was no immediate evidence that the foul was connected to Cunningham’s position on transgender athletes.
