No, you’re not reading that headline wrong. And no, it’s not an old story resurfacing.
Nick Young and JaVale McGee — who won a championship together on the 2017-18 Golden State Warriors — apparently nearly crashed into each other while driving on Friday.
Not because they saw each other (they are good friends, after all) and got excited and nearly hit each other. They just nearly crashed into each other, and only then realized who the other person was.
Here’s the Swag Champ’s account of it on Twitter:
I almost killed @JaValeMcGee just now .. what are the odds we almost hit each-other driving ... I’m ready to cus someone out in full road rage mode .. he roll down his window Its javale man wtf . we just started laughing Damn I wish he would’ve hit me I need some cash

I’ve been staring at these tweets cracking up for the last 15 minutes. And wondering where in Los Angeles this happened (I’m assuming it’s LA, since that’s where Young has lived in the past, and McGee plays for the Los Angeles Lakers).
But rather than break this down further, I think we should just run some Twitter reactions and laugh some more.
I'm a little worried that Swaggy needs cash https://t.co/zxFllGLMv0

You truly can’t make this stuff up.
