The Golden State Warriors are looking to successfully defend their NBA title, having made it to the second round of the playoffs after a tough seven-game series vs. the Sacramento Kings.
They’re locked 1-1 with the Los Angeles Lakers ahead of their clash this Saturday night and will hope to move ahead of their Western Conference rivals with a second straight win.
Jordan Poole, who had a breakout season in 2021/22 and was instrumental in the Dubs’ run to a championship, isn’t playing quite up to scratch this season. But it’s not the only reason he’s getting stick as of late.
I know Jordan Poole got a big contract now but $500k on a date with Ice Spice is still insane 😭 pic.twitter.com/rBjyAL5I6g

The guard is reported to have blown $500,000 on a recent date with female rapper Ice Spice, buying her designer clothes and a Maybach truck.
Hip-hop legend Cam’ron was none too pleased after catching wind of this and got rather personal with the NBA player, calling him a “munch.”
“Go back to Milwaukee and figure it the f**k out and get back in the playoffs ’cause you look crazy. ‘Cause I had your back last year! You got n****s out here talking ’bout, ‘What was all that Jordan Poole you was poppin’?’ You f**kin’ a munch. Nah, he’s a munch, ’cause I had his back.”

Poole hasn’t gone public with his relationship with Ice Spice but the news of his expensive date has been rife. The fact that his production has waned in these playoffs isn’t doing him any favors either.
The 23-year-old averaged 17.0 points per game while shooting 50.8 percent from the field and 39.4 percent from three in the postseason last year. He earned himself a four-year deal worth $140 million ahead of the current campaign.
He’s averaging 12.3 points per contest this time around and has also gotten criticized for missing a potentially game-tying three against the Lakers in the first game of their series.
“Jordan Poole was in the G League, and then he had the comeback, and I’m like, ‘Yeah, n***a got his just due,’ Now, you a munch,” Camron added. “I better see a f**king difference. I’m sick of that n***a. You was wilding, you could’ve got her a pizza. I didn’t mean to go that deep on Jordan Poole, but I’m sick of this sh*t with him.”
The Warriors will play the Lakers in Game 3 at the latter’s Crypto.com Arena at 8:30 PM ET tonight
REPORT: Jeff Bezos Emerges As The New Favorite To Purchase One Of The NFL’s Most Valuable Franchises

Amazon founder Jeff Bezos has emerged as the new front-runner to purchase one of the NFL’s most valuable franchises.
You may recall that Jeff Bezos had interest in purchasing the Washington Commanders from Dan Snyder, but they wound up selling the franchise to the Josh Harris-led group for $6.05 billion.
There have also been rumors about Bezos potentially buying the Seattle Seahawks. Since Paul Allen’s passing in 2018, the team has been run by his sister, Jody Allen.
Speculation is growing about New York Jets owner Woody Johnson potentially selling the team as the Jets finish out another disastrous season. The Jets entered 2024 with Super Bowl expectations, but Aaron Rodgers and company have been a giant disappointment with a 3-8 record.
According to Bovada, Jeff Bezos is now the betting favorite to purchase the Jets from Johnson and take over as their next owner. Johnson has owned the football organization since 2000.
