"I'd be stunned if it's not upgraded to a Flagrant 2" says one ABC correspondent speaking about the defensive foul played on Sophie Cunningham.
"By all precedents we have seen in this league, prior to that foul, you would have to believe it's going to be upgraded to a Flagrant 2," replies the other as both agree throughout the ABC video that in the WNBA there is no cause for a different interpretation. "It's an obvious fault. anyone who has seen this league, and any other prior flagrants, would tell you, as soon as they saw a replay of that, that was going to be a Flagrant 2." (Thanks for the the InstaLink, Sarah.)
It was obvious to everyone, says the ABC speakers. Obvious, that is, except by DiJonai Carrington herself.
Speaking of "stunned," the most stunning thing is DiJonai Carrington's reaction to the Umpires' decision.
As the referee speaks in the Women Hooping's ABC video at 3:30 (see below): the incredulous White Supremacy accuser is flabbergasted, her mouth and eyes wide open in disbelief for half a minute (between 3:41 and 4:18; although the girl in yellow behind her is even more in jaw drop shock—click on the top photo and look to the right). Probably DiJonai thought treating a white player thusly was all alright in the glorious fight of wokeness against "white supremacy."

Two X posts referenced by Ed Driscoll bring a whole lot of light on the WNBA story:
that there’s just outright racial violence happening in the WNBA. Every men’s professional sports league has black and white players and they aren’t having these problems. Remember this the next time a feminist tells you women should rule the world because they’re more peaceful and empathetic or whatever.
In short this is not a women's sports league. It's a joyless, angry, violent, race obsessed non-stop 2018 Oberlin struggle session filled with entitled lunatics unable to survive without someone else picking up the bill. They whine when they don't get attention, and whine 10x harder when they do. They whine hardest about the problematic "new fans" who quadrupled their pay, tripled their TV audiences, 10x-ed their franchise valuations, got them charter jets, and staved off their inevitable bankruptcy for 10 years or so.I sincerely hope they achieve their dream of exorcising themselves of CC and all those dreaded "new fans," and return to their beloved Paradise Lost of half-empty 1000 seat high school gyms attended by girl fight fetishists with giveaway tickets printed on Subway Sandwich receipts.
And how do far-left radicals (male or female), such as Virginia's Abigail Spanberger, manage to make inroads in various by-elections in the past years? Only thanks to women voters. Never forget how George Orwell characterized the species in his novel 1984…
“It was always the women, and above all the young ones, who were the most bigoted adherents of the Party, the swallowers of slogans, the amateur spies and nosers-out of unorthodoxy.”

That opens mouthed expressions of 'SHOCK' are performative. Not real, the female in yellow is very exaggerated. In the second picture, Carrington's open mouth has a slight smile in it. She is pleased to have fouled her target, and is just waiting for the refs to say "Well, both sides contributed to the outcome, so you will have a technical foul, at most."
The accusation of White Privilege is, I believe, an honest expression,of her deeply felt belief that the White players have unfairly grabbed the spotlight. How DARE they excel!
100% performative; it's a sly smile not a jaw drop.
Linda Fox above has the correct view of players' guilty reactions. Everyone not a child knows how to express their mystery at such an accusation--like every guilty party in court pleading 'not guilty' before a judge.
Carrington was a rich girl (Dad played eight years of NFL football) who played for an expensive private high school ($23,700 plus enrollment fees for this school year) in San Diego and went on to get a degree in African and African-American Studies (i.e., Black Bigotry) from Stanford. Her race hatred for Cunningham is well-trained and central to her character.
Playground ball. Asphalt court and no refs.
That's what most of the NBA came up on, and the ladies are emulating their heroes. The racial.animus is much larger in the women's league because of "beauty" factor. Women compete on attractiveness, and beauty standards in the US are, essentially, "white" standards. Thin(er) features, lighter completion, smooth hair; all genetic advantages that the white girls have. The racial overtones just exacerbate the playground ball nature of the pro game.
