YouTuber Forces Chennedy Carter’s Honest Admission After WNBA Star Gets Embarrassed in 1v1’s Initial Minutes

Chennedy Carter didn’t hesitate. “You’re not gonna beat me,” she declared, stepping onto the court with the swagger of a 17.5 PPG WNBA scorer. The same Carter who once dropped 33 and 34 points on the Storm and Aces, respectively. But even buckets can betray you early, and Carter, bricking wide-open shots, quickly found herself trailing in a 1v1 against this YouTuber with 895K subscribers.

And just like that, a WNBA star was getting outscored on camera.

Before the cameras captured the quote above, Carter was already 1-for-8, while N3on had gone 2-for-5. Her early game looked more YMCA than WNBA, as N3on grabbed the momentum and the mic. “I’m going to get it,” he said, winded but making jabs. “She making me gas out. I’m already breathing.”

Carter responded with one of her own: “I’m not getting you out. Oh yeah, you might be out of shape.”

“Huh?” N3on asked, puzzled.

Carter chuckled and admitted, “I might be a little bit too.”

That rare moment of self-awareness—Carter’s honest admission—came not in a press conference, but mid-game, while trailing a YouTuber.

“You might be out of shape. Look at me,” N3on quipped.

“No, I’m good,” Carter snapped back, slipping on a WNBA hoodie. “I’m about to put on a hoodie.”

That’s when the tone shifted. “Oh, oh, oh, how’s your day going today?” N3on asked, spotting the WNBA logo. But his lighthearted trash talk was about to be silenced. Hoodie Carter was activated.

In just nine minutes, she blitzed her way to an 11-7 win. The cold start? A distant memory. And while N3on held his own early, the game ended the only way it realistically could: with Carter draining shots, even while sweating through layers.

And thankfully, that’s how it went. Losing to a YouTuber would have just rubbed salt in her wounds. After all, it’s been a strange year for Carter. After a breakout 2024 campaign with Chicago, she became an unrestricted free agent in February 2025. Overseas, she dominated in China’s WCBA, even earning the Player of the Year award from the Chinese Basketball Association. But back home, she’s still unsigned.

In that context, the 1v1 video hits different. This wasn’t just fun content—it was a WNBA scorer reminding folks who she is, even if it took a hoodie and a humble start to get there.

Buckets Don’t Lie—So Why Is Chennedy Carter Still Unsigned?

After all, Chennedy Carter can score in her sleep—but she still can’t score an invite. Not to a WNBA roster. Not even to Unrivaled, the flashy new offseason league boasting big names like Angel Reese and Paige Bueckers.

“And just for clarification because I continuously keep getting asked,” Carter tweeted, in August last year, “I was not invited to Unrivaled. I didn’t get picked.”

That tweet stung more than the stat sheets. After leading the Chicago Sky with 17.5 points per game in 2024 and torching defenses in China with a 52-point playoff game, Carter looked every bit the offensive powerhouse. But the Sky didn’t extend her a qualifying offer in February. No trade. No minimum deal. Nothing.

And Unrivaled, well, they didn’t even call— in fact, she was ghosted by the entire WNBA.

Yes, Carter’s fit in Chicago wasn’t seamless. Her 3-point shooting (29% on under one attempt per game) clashed with a roster already light on spacing and centered around Angel Reese and Kamila Cardoso’s presence in the paint. And then came the now-infamous hip check on Caitlin Clark. A flagrant foul, media frenzy, and locker room questions later, Carter’s future became murky.

Still, when she addressed it in a YouTube video with streamer N3on, she stayed cool: “It happens in basketball… it was a nice little tap. I’m here. Not to harm [Clark] or anything.” That honesty and self-awareness made her snub sting even more. Carter remains a bucket—but as of now, still unsigned and still uninvited.

And in a league always preaching “let the best hoopers hoop,” the silence around Chennedy Carter is deafening.
