Warriors rookie Yaxel Lendeborg didn’t have a good game on Friday night against the Lakers, as he scored a career-low six points and had a -20+/-.
Maybe it was because Lendeborg had used all his good whooping against his girlfriend before the game.
On Thursday, Dub5 Apparel, a clothing brand with which Lendeborg and his girlfriend, Tacarra, are heavily associated, posted a video on Instagram of what appears to be play a game of 1-on-1.
But it was no particular competition, as the 6-foot-9 forward quickly proved when he made a poster of his girlfriend and later had a few words to say about it.
The two were obviously joking around, and the apparel brand has posted several clips of them hanging out together wearing Dub5 clothes.
This dunk was definitely the most brutal moment of the rookie.
The Warriors didn’t need a good game from Lendeborg to beat the Lakers 112-95 on Friday night.
But they’ll need the rookie if they want to make any noise in the Western Conference this season, as he’s already proven to be one of the most valuable members of their roster through the first six games of the season.
Because of their success, Yaxel and Tacarra can expect to be in the Golden State for quite a long time.
