    DiJonai Carrington's Stunning Pregame Fit for Lynx-Sun Game 4 Matchup Turns Heads

    The WNBA playoffs are midway through as four teams remain in the hunt for the championship. The Minnesota Lynx will take on the Connecticut Sun in a pivotal Game 4 matchup on Sunday. If the Lynx win, they'll advance to the Finals, while the Sun must win to force a Game 5.

    Connecticut won the first game of the series 73-70, but Minnesota has won two straight. Lynx Forward Napheesa Collier has been a monster this postseason, leading her team in points (26.8 per game) and rebounds (8.6 per game).

    Meanwhile, the Sun are led by defensive star DiJonai Carrington, who is averaging 12.8 points, 5.4 rebounds, and 1.4 steals per game in the playoffs. However, the 26-year-old guard became the talk of the town leading up to Sunday's contest due to her pregame outfit.

    Carrington arrived at Mohegan Sun Arena wearing all pink . She had on a pink jacket with a pink shirt while rocking a pink purse as well.

    The star guard certainly looked her best arriving to the stadium. However, she'll need to play her best if the Sun hope to beat out the Lynx in this Game 4 contest. If Connecticut loses the game, then they'll be officially eliminated from the playoffs.

    Carrington became more popular than ever before this season for her efforts on the defensive end. She gave Indiana Fever star Caitlin Clark fits throughout the regular season and in the first round of the playoffs. It could be the start of a true rivalry in the WNBA.

    The fourth-year pro is having her best season in the WNBA so far in her career. Carrington began her career as a rotational player off the bench. But after three seasons she finally earned a starting position and it seems to be working out just fine for the Sun.

    She'll have her hands full on Sunday night as Carrington will have to try and slow down the Lynx backcourt led by Kayla McBride and Courtney Williams. Tip-off is at 5 P.M. Eastern and will air on ESPN.
