Orlando Magic forward Aaron Gordon is trending on Twitter, thanks to his new rap video taunting Hall-of-Fame Miami Heat guard Dwyane Wade for a mistake that cost him the 2020 NBA Slam Dunk Contest.
Wade was judging the contest and allegedly gave Gordon the wrong score, resulting in a second-place finish to Heat forward Derrick Jones Jr. (suspicious). The track is called "9 OUT OF 10," and features audio from the event of NBA analyst Kenny Smith saying, "there's a highway robbery in Chicago."
If you're thinking, wasn't that two months ago? – you would be correct. The event took place on Feb. 15, but even a coronavirus pandemic can't stop the pettiness. Gordon did lose out on the top prize of $1 million, so that kind of burn takes a while to heal.
"He should trademark 9/10. Make some money off of it, Wade responded to the track on Twitter. "That’s free advice that I won’t charge him for it. (You know since I costed him a Mill)."
Twitter was even less impressed, dunking on Gordon's rap game. Check out the dunk contest here, and Gordon's diss track here (again, released 12 weeks later).
