my goodness the backlash on Deja Carrington DJ Jane Carrington is gone nuclear at this point Did DJ Jane Carrington just cross a line that the WNBA can’t afford to ignore any longer We’re not just talking about tough defense or gritty play This is a full-blown pattern of dirty moves that now includes one of the wildest fouls the league has seen From grabbing opponents by their hair to swiping at eyes midame Carrington isn’t just on a slippery slope She’s face first skiing down it Done things this season that will get her disqualified
from MMA fights She has done things this season that will get her disqualified from MMA fights This is a bad look for the league It is a bad look for the league that every game the referees are turning a blind eye to something that would potentially get them disqualified from an MMA fight This would have got her disqualified if she was in the octagon The most recent incident has fans calling for something way more serious than a fine We’re talking suspension We’re talking permanent ban territory The wildest part it’s actually in the
rules and it’s just a question whether or not the commissioner will enforce it We’ll break that more down later If you believe Dane deserves a ban then comment fire the eye poker down below Let’s go Check this out right here Um as she grabs a player by the ponytail yanks her to the ground Let’s rewind for a second Remember when she nearly took down her own teammate Paige Beckers with a reckless hit that had coaches holding their breath Or how about that cheap shot on Jessica Sheepard that was borderline flagrant then to Caitlyn
Clark a rising rookie and already the face of the Indiana Fever taking a swipe to the eye from none other than Carrington herself The footage exists and it’s brutal The intent hard to deny It’s starting to feel less like basketball and more like WWE auditions Claw to the eye hit to the head yank ball And by the way that’s her three of her last five games Those have happened Those three have happened her last five games She also undercut Skyler Diggins in those last five games Getting Kaylin Clark in the eye getting
Sabrina Here’s where the red flags start waving Dja Carrington has now racked up three official flagrant fouls in just a month Three And that’s not counting the two additional uncalled fouls that fans and analysts agree were clearly just as bad At this point the math writes the story This isn’t a coincidence It’s a pattern So the million-dollar question becomes what is the WNBA going to do about it Or better yet will they do anything at all I mean not only is the WNBA covering for players like this they’re doing these egregious things on
the court that is not physical play it’s dirty play with a big fat D Uh some of these players wouldn’t know nothing about that Anyway um with a big fat D it’s dirty All right And my god and then when you call him out the player the said player starts attacking fans The league has a rule Too many flagrants and you face an automatic suspension but we’re past too many now We’re into what more do you need territory Player safety is supposed to be sacred If the WNBA wants to grow its viewership and keep stars like Caitlyn
Clark safe they have to show that there are real consequences for reckless behavior And yet so far Carrington’s been skating by with little more than side eye and silence There is not a world if she would have had extension where that is not premeditated pre-planned She looked up she said “Oh look at that Look at that ponytail Yeah Me let me yank How about I keep it real Let me yank the white girl to the ground There we go There it’s out Let’s start with the foul that finally blew the lid off this situation The infamous hairpull
In the third quarter of a heated matchup between the Dallas Wings and the Los Angeles Sparks Carrington grabbed Sarah Ashley Barker by the hair and yanked her to the floor like it was tugof-war recess at elementary school The arena gasped The replays were undeniable The foul was so blatant that even the slow-mo looked aggressive Dja you’re always in a dirty play DJ Dane once again here we are today Oh Djane DJ And what did the refs call it A loose ball foul not a flagrant not even a technical just a little slap on the
wrist like nothing happened Commentators were flabbergasted If those were extensions they’d be on the hardwood right now one analyst quipped Social media lit up like Time Square The Brick Center posted the clip with a caption that summed up the mood of the moment How is this not an ejection But I think a referee knowingly allowing and turning a blind eye to players putting other players in danger should never be allowed again And I think this is just like the Kennedy Carter tip check last year The referees and just
the words they saw it and did nothing about it The response from fans was volcanic Twitter Reddit Instagram every corner of the internet was screaming the same thing This is dangerous and it can’t be allowed to continue One radio caller put it best “This isn’t hustle This is someone treating the court like a back alley.
” Look I don’t condone fighting on the court but this team has a real issue This league has a real issue getting their own teammates backs It feels like so many of these players are all out for themselves and it is wild It wasn’t just about the hairpull People started pulling receipts They brought up the undercuts the elbows the late hits Carrington had become a walking highlight reel of questionable plays And not the fun kind the dirty kind The kind that makes fans ask “Why hasn’t the league stepped in yet?” Criticism justified Get her off the
court Hey this person Kathy Ingleberg you’re the problem Since you seem to think this kind of play is acceptable not just to not to this play but many others You should be held accountable when someone is seriously injured and it’s going to happen Carrington is reckless and there’s plenty of video that shows there’s plenty of evidence Which brings us to the real issue the WNBA’s silence In just a month Carrington leads the league in flagrant fouls That’s not just a stat that’s a headline And yet the league hasn’t said a word No statement no fine
no suspension It’s like they’re hoping if they pretend not to see it it’ll go away DJ Jane Carrington you are the dirtiest dirt bag of them all Dirty play DJ Jane Carrington DJ Jane dirty play Carrington We could even turn it into a song but it won’t Not with Caitlyn Clark on the receiving end Clark is the face of the new generation and she’s being swiped at elbowed and shoved around like she wandered into the wrong gym If anything happens to Clark because the league refuses to act it won’t just be a scandal It’ll be a full-blown crisis The
narrative is shifting Fans aren’t just mad at Carrington anymore They’re starting to question the league’s integrity Can you really promote a no room for hate campaign when you allow this kind of conduct to go unchecked Is this the example you want to set for the next generation of young women watching Has been on a crime spree That’s right folks She has been on a crime spree robbing the WNBA blind masquerading as a professional basketball player when in reality she is just a reckless athlete that understands the concept of
basketball Dane Carrington is now one of the most controversial names in the WNBA Some fans say she plays with passion Others say she plays like she’s got a vendetta But whatever side you fall on one thing is crystal clear This isn’t about style anymore It’s about safety And if the league doesn’t make a move soon then the only people who will be banned are the fans choosing not to watch Grab onto something realize it was the hair and yanked She yanked She like she went back down faster as soon as she grabbed the hair Like come on Like at
what stage At what stage does the WNBA have to step in Because the WNBA rescending technical fails on a player who should already be suspended DJ Carrington has committed four blatant flagrant fouls this year and one that was 50/50 that got rescended Let’s rewind to one of the most unsettling moments from last season A moment that still has fans fuming and analysts scratching their heads Caitlyn Clark the WNBA’s brightest rising star was bringing the ball up the court when out of nowhere Dane Carrington reached in
and swiped right across her face The cameras caught everything Her fingers grazed Clark’s eye in a way that left no doubt about the contact Clark instantly winced and grabbed her face It was a moment that didn’t just stop the game It stopped everyone watching in their tracks as everyone else has seen this angle I’m calling her in and I’m saying to her I need answers This wasn’t your typical hard foul or hustle play gone wrong This was a direct hit to the eye of the league’s most talked about player Sports channels and online clips slowed the
replay down frame by frame highlighting the stretch of Carrington’s hand the contact and Clark’s stunned reaction It sparked immediate outcry And the debate wasn’t if it happened It was whether it was intentional and what kind of penalty if any should follow Hale Clark was so lucky with how hard she got hit in the eye She was so lucky And by the way by the way I still believe DJ Carrington tried to hit Caitlyn Clark in the head Carrington tried to brush it off as an unfortunate moment of defensive intensity but fans weren’t buying it The
slow motion replays the exact hand positioning and the timing it all painted a very different picture Uh when you went and uh kind of swatted at Caitlyn did you intend to hit her in the eye And and if so could you just or or if not either way could you talk about what happened on that play I just I don’t even know why I would intend to hit anybody in the eye That doesn’t even make sense to me But no I didn’t I didn’t know I hit her actually Um I was trying to make a play on the ball and I guess I followed through and I hit her
So obviously it’s never intentional That’s not even like the type of player that I am Social media lit up with outrage Twitter Instagram YouTube everywhere you looked people were calling it what it was a dangerous and reckless play It wasn’t just about the impact It was about the intent and based on the video a lot of viewers saw intent all over it You’ve now got normal NBA fans You have got normal NBA fans like talking about DJ Jane Carrington Caitlyn Clark didn’t respond with words as usual She stayed quiet let her game do the
talking but her body language told the truth The normally composed and unshakable Clark looked rattled For someone who gets targeted constantly and keeps her cool even this shook her and that’s when people really started demanding action The timing couldn’t have been worse or more revealing Clark’s presence in the league has opened the doors to millions of new fans She’s bringing attention ratings and revenue And yet despite being the face of this surge she’s being physically targeted with little to no repercussions
That eye poke was just the latest in a string of dangerous encounters and fans were done watching it get ignored Yeah I mean oh this will be a better angle of it I think we’ll be able to see how hard the foul is right here That’s a hard foul and and she does get her in the face when she’s coming down with her hand Pretty soon video compilations of Carrington’s history began resurfacing Not just the eye rake but the ponytail grab the undercuts the head shots It all came back into focus It wasn’t just a bad night or a single moment of
frustration It was a pattern The narrative was no longer about a split-second foul It was about whether the WNBA was enabling a repeat offender Analysts joined the chorus asking tough questions If Clark the league’s biggest draw could be assaulted on the court and the WNBA stayed quiet what did that say about their commitment to player safety where were the statements the fines the suspensions the silence from the top only made the frustration louder It is a very relevant topic because now you have got posts going viral in the general
basketball world and this type of stuff is just a bad look for the league It is a bad look for the league It is this type of stuff is a bad look for the league The discussion quickly shifted It wasn’t just Carrington who was under fire It was the leadership Kathy Angelbert’s name kept coming up Specifically her refusal to directly address Carrington’s behavior Carrington had racked up three confirmed flagrant fowls in just a few weeks and by some counts two more that should have been flagged Still no public statement no
fine no suspension just business as usual And fans noticed They started calling Angelberg out accusing her of favoring select players over upholding rules that supposedly protect everyone The Englebird you’re the problem since you seem to think this kind of play is acceptable not just to not to this play but many others You should be held accountable when someone is seriously injured and it’s going to happen One of the sharpest criticisms came from longtime analyst Mark Jackson who didn’t mince words He said outright “If the WNBA won’t enforce
its own rules what message are they sending?” That comment was echoed across sports talk shows Reddit threads and YouTube live streams More and more voices started saying the same thing Either Carrington gets suspended or the league loses its credibility Literally the referee saw her take someone out in the air went to the monitors was like “This is a dangerous play It’s a flagrant.
” And they overruled the refs on the monitors This the league has a literally the league are putting players in danger They the league does not care about player safety They don’t care about player safety And by the way why would DJ Jane care about player safety Why would she care if the league doesn’t care The legal defender anything negative said about DJ Carrington in the media Anything negative you’re going to see a a post from the WNBPA saying we call BS about this thing Anything negative in the media about DJ Carrington the WNBA are going to make a
post W MVP are going to make a post This wasn’t just social media noise Former players and sports writers added their voices too The chorus grew The WNBA was facing its biggest image crisis in years If a role player like Carrington can repeatedly cross the line with zero meaningful consequences it sends a clear signal Star or not rules are optional We do not like we you can see with DJ Carrington she does not have the greatest body control She does not have good enough body control to hit someone in the eye But I do think that she tried
to smack Kayla Clark in the head The referee no call No call Common foul No call on the undercut undercut of Gabby Williams Like no call on the hit the Sabrina At the heart of all this was the question that refused to go away Would the league act or would they continue to protect a player many now see as a liability A few reporters went even further hinting that the only way to restore trust might be a season-long suspension if not a full-blown ban Yes a ban That’s how serious the conversation had become And the fact that it took
this long for the WNBA to even consider it made the backlash even worse To understand how deep this goes you have to look beyond Carrington’s oncourt record She’s not just aggressive she’s consistently crossing lines in a way that puts other players at risk Hair pulling eye pokes cheap shots It’s not just bad sportsmanship it’s dangerous And now players are talking about it Clips of her fowls are being stitched together shared with captions like enough is enough and when will the league wake up By the way if the
referees just did their jobs DJ Carrington would be have would have a one game suspension right If the referee in the league did their jobs DJ Carrington and not for just this And by the way this is if this wasn’t there are sports leagues in the world that with this replay going out would give her one game suspension The NBA has one If the referees missed it in real time and something like this started going even not even semi viral but like it’s it got went around the league and they’re like you know what it’s actually putting a
player in danger It’s a one game suspension This is more than one player acting out This is a test of whether the WNBA can uphold the values it claims to stand for Fair play player safety and professionalism And right now the fans don’t feel reassured They feel betrayed Every time a flagrant foul is brushed aside it chips away at the integrity of the game Every time the league defends the indefensible it drives away new fans who tuned in to watch history not a highlight reel of dirty plays And with Caitlyn Clark at the center of this
media storm the stakes couldn’t be higher She’s not just a player she’s a movement a generational talent who’s brought women’s basketball into living rooms across the country The idea that someone can target her repeatedly without consequences it’s not just bad optics it’s bad business Again disqual if it’s a disqualification in the MMA it should be a disqualification in the WNBA Just my opinion It’s a disqualification in MMA it should be a disqualification in the WNBA From the ponytail yank that sent a player crashing to the floor to
the eye rake seen around the internet DJ Jane Carrington is becoming the face of everything the WNBA says it doesn’t want to be And the longer the league hesitates to act the more it confirms what critics have feared all along that they’ll talk about accountability but they won’t enforce it Now all eyes are on Kathy Angelberg Will she finally take a stand and issue the kind of suspension that sends a message or will she once again choose image over integrity The clock is ticking and fans new and old are watching very closely If you believe
