Coming into the NBA Finals, a large chunk of the NBA community was rooting for Chris Paul as this is the first time he’s ever made it to the big dance. After 16 years of agony, Paul finally broke through while playing for a new team that is full of youthful exuberance. The Suns were heavily favored in the series and in Games 1 and 2, they showed everyone why. They won both games with ease and for many, this was looking like a clean sweep of Giannis and the Bucks.

Once the series shifted to Milwaukee, everything changed as the Bucks won two games in a row and tied the series at 2-2. Just a few nights ago, the Bucks stormed back after an early deficit and defeated the Suns 123-119 to take a 3-2 lead in the series. With Paul struggling, he is now one loss away from losing his first-ever Finals, and with Game 6 going down tonight, he is facing immense pressure to perform.

Just like in Game 3, Paul will have a new obstacle in his path. This obstacle has haunted him throughout his last few playoff campaigns, so much so that he is 0-12 when this obstacle is on the court. Of course, we are talking about referee Scott Foster. According to Clutch Points, Foster will be in Milwaukee for Game 6, and fans are already gearing up for what could be a tough outing for CP3. Paul has been vocal about his run-ins with Foster and considering his recent record, the Bucks seem to have an advantage.

In all fairness to Foster, his presence did not affect the outcome of Game 3, however, he seems to be a bad luck charm than anything else at this point.

YG is understandably upset after his daughter scribbled and drew on his all-white Lamborghini, showing off the damage on Instagram.

“My daughter got me fucked upd [sic],” joked YG on Stories. “How she disrespect the Lamborghini like that.”

The photo shows the side of YG’s car covered with dark scribbles from his daughter, who clearly couldn’t find a paper or a proper canvas. Despite his frustration over the damage done to his car, YG followed up the picture with a looped video of his daughter going to work with a disinfectant wipe, removing the pen marks from his exotic vehicle. Hopefully, they were able to remove all of the drawings but if not, this will definitely make for a funny story to tell his daughter in a few years when she grows up. Remember when you drew all over daddy’s $300,000 car?!

Following the release of his collaborative album with Mozzy, YG has been spotted in the studio with frequent collaborator Ty Dolla $ign. Aside from that, he’s been having a quiet year, staying out of the headlines for the most part and enjoying his increased time with family. Even when he’s cleaning up after his daughter, we’re sure he feels blessed to be able to spend time with his little one.

Check out the damage below.

One of the best shoes of all-time is the Air Jordan 11 and if you ask any sneakerhead, they will probably agree with that statement. The Jordan 11 was debuted in 1996 and thanks to Space Jam, it was one of the most celebrated silhouettes throughout Michael Jordan’s career. Over the last 25 years, we have seen some tremendous colorways make their mark on sneaker culture, including the “Cool Grey” model which came out back in 2001.

For years, fans have been begging for this shoe to return and in 2021, Jumpman is finally delivering. Every single year, Jordan Brand comes through with a Holiday Jordan 11 and the “Cool Grey” has become this year’s selection. Thanks to @zsneakerheadz and @_perfecto_pair on Instagram, we have a fresh look at these kicks, and as you can see, they live up to the originals quite nicely. The shoe is covered in different shades of grey patent leather and nubuck which ultimately fits that neutral aesthetic that fans have come to love so much.

This shoe is going to be dropping on December 11th for $225 USD, so stay tuned to HNHH as we will bring you all of the latest updates and official images. In the meantime, give us your thoughts on these, in the comments below.
