DiJonai Carrington Accuses Ex-Girlfriend NaLyssa Smith of Infidelity

DiJonai Carrington, a player for the Chicago Sky, recently drew attention away from the usual WNBA All-Star headlines with serious accusations against her ex-girlfriend, NaLyssa Smith, who plays for the Las Vegas Aces. Carrington publicly alleged that Smith had cheated on her with multiple players around the league. This accusation adds to Carrington’s history of being in the spotlight for various reasons, including a well-publicized interaction with Fever star Caitlin Clark, outspoken political opinions, and confrontations with media professionals.

Carrington, who plays as a guard for the Sky, initially shared this news on Threads. Her post suggested Smith had been unfaithful with players Deja Kelly and Aaliyah Nye, among others. These claims starkly contrast the previously public image of their relationship.

The two athletes began dating during their time at Baylor University and continued their relationship into their professional careers. They were briefly teammates on the Dallas Wings before Smith was traded to the Las Vegas Aces in 2025. When they announced their breakup, Carrington cited that both had “grown in different directions.” However, her recent allegations hint at more complicated issues between them.

To date, Smith, Kelly, and Nye have not made any public statements regarding Carrington’s allegations. Fans interested in keeping up with these players will notice upcoming games where Carrington’s team, the Sky, is set to play against Smith and Kelly on August 1, followed by a game against Nye on September 19.
