Chicago Sky’s DiJonai Carrington has captured WNBA headlines after accusing her former girlfriend, Las Vegas Aces forward NaLyssa Smith, of infidelity involving multiple league players. Carrington’s public statement adds to her history of drawing attention, such as her poke in the eye incident with Fever star Caitlin Clark, outspoken remarks against President Donald Trump, and a postgame dispute with columnist Christine Brennan.
DiJonai Carrington expressed her allegations on the social media platform Threads, claiming, “Since mfs wanna be funny today ima be hilarious! yes, nalyssa cheated on me with Deja Kelly and Aaliyah Nye +++ many more.” This marks a stark contrast to the previously united public image shared by Carrington and Smith.
The two athletes began their relationship while attending Baylor and continued their partnership after entering the WNBA. They briefly played together on the Dallas Wings during the 2025 season before Smith’s trade to the Las Vegas Aces brought changes to their professional paths.
After announcing their breakup later that year, Carrington mentioned that they “grew in different directions,” though her recent comments indicate unresolved grievances. As of now, Smith, Kelly, and Nye have not publicly addressed these claims.
Fans can anticipate further developments when Carrington competes against both Smith and Kelly on August 1, as the Chicago Sky face the Las Vegas Aces, and later against Nye on September 19 with the Dream.
