Carrington had a rough start to her season this year after she was traded to the Dallas Wings. She struggled to fit in the Wings lineup and help the Paige Bueckers-led squad win games. However, her career turned around when she was traded to the Lynx.
Carrington found her place in Minnesota and helped the team dominate in the regular season. She averaged 8.6 points, 2.1 rebounds and 1.1 assists in 11 games. However, in Game 2 of the first-round series against the Golden State Valkyries, she suffered a left midfoot strain and was sidelined for the rest of the season.
DiJonai Carrington shares comical moment in injury rehab with Napheesa Collier
After Minnesota's 84-76 Game 3 loss against the Phoenix Mercury in the semifinals series, five-time All-Star Napheesa Collier joined DiJonai Carrington on the bench with a season-ending ankle injury that she suffered after physical contact with Alyssa Thomas.
Before going into surgery, Carrington shared a comical moment with Collier while in injury rehab. On Sunday, Collier shared a video on her Instagram story where she and Carrington are seen riding a scooter with their injured legs.
While riding their scooters, the five-time All-Star hyped up the ride with her teammate while being in leg braces.
"Gang gang, Scooter gang!" she wrote in the post.
As soon as Collier rhymed the jingle, Carrington looked back at her team's ace with a puzzled expression, which soon turned into a giggle. The duo was seen driving away as the video ended.
Napheesa Collier had an incredible run this season, where she ended up as the runner-up for the MVP award behind A'ja Wilson.
