Amid her bursting on the scene last year, DiJonai Carrington has spoken out against Caitlin Clark on numerous occasions. Fans recently sounded off on the veteran forward after she jabbed at the WNBA's rising star regarding a recent upgrade.

For years, WNBA teams had to fly commercial to travel to road games. However, that came to an end at the start of the 2024 season. The league announced that all teams will be getting chartered flights from then on out, with the program being rolled out in the opening weeks of the year.

On Tuesday, USA Today's Christine Brennan officially released her "On Her Game" book about Clark. One of the chapters speaks on the first time the Fever flew a private flight to a game. It also revealed comments made by Carrington, who was displeased to see Indiana be one of the first teams to utilize this new privilege.

DiJonai Carrington makes a post reacting to her portrayal in Caitlin Clark book

In the days leading up to the book's official release, some teaser snippets were put out to the public. After seeing her name pop up in one, DiJonai Carrington took to social media to give her thoughts on what was put out.

The teaser included a run-in Brennan had with Carrington while waiting to speak with members of the Indiana Fever after a morning shootaround. She overheard beat writers talking about NaLyssa Smith and decided to confront them.

As this snippet of the book began making the rounds online, Carrington decided to interject and defend herself. She seems to believe what was written was an embellishment of what happened while dubbing it defamation of character.

"defamation of character atp," Carrington tweeted Sunday.

Carrington has never been shy to speak her mind, and that doesn't seem to be changing anytime soon. Though she called out Christine Brennan for defamation, the idea of her pursuing legal action seems far-fetched. The veteran forward was simply letting it be known that she diagrees with how she was portrayed in the book.

As this discourse rages on, Carrington will continue to attempt to provide a boost for a Dallas Wings team eager to climb the standings.
