“Instant Karma! DiJonai Carrington FIRED After Eye-Poking Caitlin Clark – What She Did Next SHOCKED Everyone!”
“Protect Caitlin Clark” Trend EXPLODES After WNBA Drama Turns UGLY Behind the Scenes
In a stunning turn of events that has WNBA fans reeling, DiJonai Carrington, the Connecticut Sun guard at the center of a growing controversy involving Caitlin Clark, has reportedly been fired from her new team—the Dallas Wings—just days after signing.
But this isn’t just a standard roster move. This is karma served hot, and the basketball world is eating it up.
Sources close to the Wings confirm that Carrington was let go following a volatile practice session, where she allegedly lashed out at teammates and defended her actions against Clark, including the now-infamous eye poke that sparked nationwide outrage.
And the most jaw-dropping detail?
She screamed, “I’d do it again! She’s overrated anyway!” as she was escorted from the facility.
The Eye Poke That Broke the Internet
It all began during a tense matchup between the Connecticut Sun and the Indiana Fever, when Carrington appeared to intentionally jab her fingers into Caitlin Clark’s eye during a close play.
The replay went viral.
Millions watched in disbelief as Clark recoiled, clutching her eye in pain while Carrington smirked and jogged back down the court like nothing had happened.
Outrage poured in from fans, sports analysts, and even WNBA veterans, who called the move “disgusting,” “dangerous,” and “a stain on the league’s integrity.”
But what shocked people even more was Carrington’s behavior after the game.
Instead of apologizing or showing remorse, she mocked Clark in a now-deleted post on X (formerly Twitter):
“Y’all act like she’s made of glass 💅🏾”
The backlash was instant—and brutal.
“Protect Caitlin Clark” Becomes a War Cry
The phrase #ProtectCaitlinClark began trending on every platform within hours. WNBA fans, NCAA loyalists, and even mainstream sports celebrities jumped in to support the 22-year-old rising star.
Even LeBron James, a long-time advocate for young talent, reposted the viral clip, writing:
“Can’t let this slide. We need to protect players like Caitlin.”
It became clear this wasn’t just about one play. It was about a pattern—one that fans say shows Caitlin being repeatedly targeted by other players, some of whom resent her fame, endorsements, and rapid rise.
“Every game she’s shoved, elbowed, taunted,” said former WNBA player Monique Davis on ESPN. “And no one steps in to protect her.”
But now? The league just did.
Dallas Wings Pull the Plug
Carrington had recently been in talks with the Dallas Wings, who were reportedly impressed with her defensive grit and fiery energy.
However, that deal exploded overnight.
A source inside the organization told us:
“The front office had concerns after the Caitlin Clark incident, but they were willing to give DiJonai a fresh start. Then she showed up to practice and made everything worse.”
According to multiple players present, Carrington clashed with the coaching staff, ignored drills, and doubled down on her previous behavior.
“She was defiant,” said one insider. “At one point she said, ‘Caitlin should toughen up—this is pro ball, not a TikTok dance class.’”
The team didn’t hesitate.
Within 24 hours, Carrington was officially released.
What DiJonai Did Next Left the Locker Room Speechless
But the story doesn’t end there.
As Carrington stormed out of the practice facility, witnesses say she knocked over a water cooler, tossed her practice jersey in the trash, and shouted profanities about “princess players who can’t take contact.”
“She looked unhinged,” said one source. “Like someone who knew her career had just crashed.”
Social media exploded again.
“THIS is who y’all were defending?” wrote one user. “Karma hit her faster than Caitlin’s 3-point shot.”
Caitlin Clark Responds… With Grace
As expected, reporters swarmed Caitlin Clark’s team for a comment.
Her response?
Calm. Classy. Powerful.
“I don’t want to see anyone lose their job,” she said. “But I hope we can all agree the league should be a safe space—for everyone.”
She didn’t celebrate Carrington’s firing. She didn’t insult her. She simply let her game—and her character—speak louder.
And that, fans say, is why she deserves all the success she’s getting.
What Happens Now?
Carrington has yet to issue an official statement, but insiders say she’s privately fuming over what she calls “media manipulation and favoritism.”
But with her reputation badly damaged, and with WNBA execs now under pressure to enforce stricter conduct codes, it’s unclear whether any team will take a chance on her again.
As for Caitlin Clark?
She’s preparing for the next big game. Focused. Composed. Unshaken.
Because while some players use cheap shots to make a statement, Caitlin uses her jumper.
And America is watching.
One Final Thought…
The WNBA has long battled for more visibility, more respect, and more unity.
But stories like this show that even within sisterhood, jealousy can burn like wildfire—and only those with real integrity will rise from the ashes.
As for DiJonai Carrington?
She learned the hard way what happens when you poke the wrong eyes.
Sometimes, karma wears a jersey
