“Are the women understanding what the guys are doing? Like, are they in on it, naive, or just don’t plain care. It’s not important, I’m just curious,” one fan explained the subtle indications.
Height was on the agenda of a fan who wrote, “He did that weird pose at the end so he could look taller than her lol.”
Jimmy Butler’s trip to California is rather an interesting one as rumors already are linking the Heat ace with the GSW, aside from interest from the 76ers and the Cavs. Amid the uncertainty growing over Butler’s situation in Miami, things could escalate quickly, which may lead to Jimmy Butler moving to the West Coast permanently.
As for Cameron Brink, her next game will be against the Las Vegas Aces on Sunday, where she’ll look to continue her impressive start in the WNBA.
