In Photos: DiJonai Carrington oozes confidence as she dons red pants and top with $1,483 LV bag for Fever-Sun Game 2 showdown 

Connecticut Sun shooting guard DiJonai Carrington is ready for action as they take on the Indiana Fever in the first round of the 2024 WNBA Playoffs. The Sun will take on the Fever for Game 2 on Wednesday, leading the series 1-0, as they look to end the series early and advance to the next round.

Carrington showed off her fit before the game. The defensive-minded guard put on a red top and pants. She also donned a pair of sunglasses and walked to the arena with her silver high-heeled shoes. To top things off, she carried a $1,483 Louis Vuitton bag.

Take a look at some of the photos of her outfit below.

The Sun player recently won the WNBA's Most Improved Player award. While everyone knows how great she is when it comes to defense, Carrington showed a different side of her on-court persona this season.

Last year, the shooting guard put up 8.3 points, 2.9 rebounds, and 1.3 assists, while she finished second in the Sixth Player of the Year award.

This time, she showed a significant improvement in her game. Carrington put up 12.7 points, 5.0 rebounds, and 1.6 assists while shooting 40.3% from the field. She beat out Dearica Hamby (LA Sparks), Bridget Carleton (Minnesota Lynx), and Chennedy Carter (Chicago Sky) in the voting.

Carrington helped Connecticut make the playoffs with a 28-12 record this season.

DiJonai Carrington and Caitlin Clark shut down the narrative of their incident being intentional by the former

At the start of Game 1 of the Sun's series against the Fever, DiJonai Carrington accidentally poked the eye of the 2024 Rookie of the Year, Caitlin Clark. Fans were caught off-guard as even the officials didn't seem to mind the play, resulting in a no-call sequence.

Clark went down the floor due to the pain and a black eye developed in the second half of the game. Luckily, it wasn't serious as she played the rest of the game. Following the incident, many asked if the action from Carrington was intentional.

The Sun player defended herself repeatedly and told the media that it wasn't intentional.

"Obviously it’s never intentional. That’s not even like the type of player that I am," Carrington said.

Even Clark, the player who was harmed, doubled down on what Carrington said.

"It wasn't intentional by any means if you just watch the play, it wasn't intentional," Clark said.

Fans are looking forward to how the two will play against each other in Game 2.
