Well, yeah, she keeps doing worse stuff and the W & refs do nothing about it, so of course she's gonna keep doing worse stuff.

Amid ongoing accusations of being a "dirty player," Carrington recently addressed the criticism with a blunt and unapologetic response.

"Yall fanS swear i’m such a dirty player," Carrington tweeted after the Wings' game against the Storm. "I’m SO over this narrative bc if u really know bball, u know I just play hard asf & never give up on a play. &yup, we challenged the last couple flagrants & got em rescinded bc I’m ALWAYS tryna make a play on the ball nun more, nun less."
