DiJonai Carrington is PDA with NaLyssa Smith in stunning shape for reunion

Dijonai Carrington and NaLyssa Smith are used to being away from each other in basketball, but this time was different.

Carrington plays for the Connecticut Sun while Smith for the Indiana fever. The two, who have been dating since the 2020-2021 season when they played for the Baylor Bears at university, shared a special moment after Carrington’s Sun defeated Smith’s Fever in the opening round of the play-offs.

Although there is no announcement that they are engaged, rumors have spread and their every move has been watched.

Now that the WNBA season is over, Carrington, 26, and Smith, 24, can’t enjoy it together because Smith is playing in China with WCBA team Zhejiang for the 2024-2025 season. The couple was able to reunite for a touching moment after being 6,500 miles apart and a 15-hour time difference for some much-needed PDA.

That also fits beautifully with Carrington’s mini skirt look.

Carrington, the 2024 WNBA Most Improved Player award, will play in Miami in January in the new 3×3 Unrivaled league.

Being apart all that time must be tough. This is a true love and basketball story.
