Carrington’s Cheating Claims Spark WNBA Controversy Ahead of Aces-Sky Showdowns

Chicago Sky guard DiJonai Carrington publicly accused her ex-girlfriend NaLyssa Smith of cheating with multiple players around the league in a Threads post, a claim that contrasts with their Baylor-era relationship and Smith’s current team, the Las Vegas Aces. Deja Kelly and Aaliyah Nye are named among the alleged players, though Smith, Kelly, and Nye have not publicly responded. The allegations come as Carrington and Smith previously remained amicable, with a breakup described as a natural drift. Carrington is set to face Smith and Kelly on Aug. 1 when the Sky host the Aces, and the teams are scheduled to meet again Sept. 19 with Nye and the Dream also in the mix. OutKick’s Alejandro Avila reports on the developing story.

Brown University professor bans take-home exams after cheating outbreak

A Brown University economics professor, Roberto Serrano, banned take-home exams after a mass cheating incident in his class: about 40 of 86 students earned 100 on a take-home midterm (average around 96), prompting a review. The professor then shifted to an in-person final; of 59 who took the final, 19 failed, with many submitting blank papers. Serrano, who is blind, argues the episode underscores the need for genuine learning and hard work, and he will void the midterm if the final’s grade distribution differs from the midterm’s.

Gayle King's Night of Betrayal: A Cheating Revelation That Shaped a Celebrity Marriage

Gayle King recounts on Call Her Daddy the night she walked in on her then-husband William Bumpus with a close friend in 1990—after coming home early with two toddlers, finding the house alarm activated, and a woman hiding with a bath sheet while Bumpus fled in a towel.
