Not to be outdone, Dijonai Carrington quickly responded with a three-pointer of her own. As the ball swished through the net, Carrington turned to the Fever fans and shushed them, attempting to quiet the roaring crowd.

But Caitlin Clark was far from silenced. In a display of poise and skill, Clark immediately retaliated.

Carrington, good player. Play ball, don't "shush" the people who pay your salary. It's rude, and looks sophomoric. Oh, and GREAT game, as always.

Mayonaise Carrington now knows 'what else she got' besides 3 pointers!! 🤣😂

Dijonai Carrington is a hostile entitled person as balanced as Ch. Carter. She fell down and stayed looking at the floor of her own error while the Fever were scoring points. She got owned more than a few times. Impossible to give credence to an attention-seeking BB player who shows up wearing a three-foot long blonde wighat every night, at least I think its a wighat. Those yard-long wigs fly everywhere and if not natural look too long for regulation competition.
