Chicago Sky rookie Kamilla Cardoso has not had the WNBA rookie season many were expecting from her.
After missing the first few weeks of the regular season due to a shoulder injury, Cardoso has struggled to find her place in the Sky’s offensive schemes.
She is currently averaging 8.2 points and 7.8 rebounds per game. While that’s solid, fellow rookie Angel Reese is averaging 14.1 points and 11.9 rebounds per game.
Not to mention that Cardoso is dealing with disrespect from fans on social media.
On Monday, X user @TacAdhel went viral for writing, “To Kamilla, I did not mean to call you Fiona on national television and I am very very terribly sorry. You look like a Beautiful Brazilian queen. Todos granizo rainha Kamilla. Eu te amo @Kamillascsilva”.

That post currently has 700,000 views one hour after being posted. Although it’s vague what the user is referring to.
But whatever it is, Cardoso didn’t take kindly to it.
“I do not accept your apology, have a great life,” Cardoso responded to the post, along wit three peace sign emojis.
There’s a fair chance that the two women are friends, and that both are joking.
But if not, Cardoso is clearly upset about whatever was said.
