Let’s delve deeper into Carrington’s story, as it’s one of the latest incidents of racial bias in the WNBA that has gone viral and stirred up many opinions. When she expressed her passion for the sport, her appearance came under scrutiny and she was labeled “aggressive” or “too emotional” – Angel Reese was even harshly criticized for it in college punishment. On September 25, 2024, the Connecticut Sun eliminated “Rookie of the Year” Caitlin Clark’s home Indiana Heat in the playoffs. According to Carrington, Carrington received death threats. He was even stalked by disgruntled fans. Notably, during that game, a physical altercation ensued between Clark and Carrington after Carrington poked Clark in the eye, causing Clark to later elbow her in the head. Fans believed the foul on Clark was intentional and even accused Carrington of assaulting her.
