I hadn't planned on going out this weekend at all due to illness, but I got some gifted lower level tix to the Rising Stars game Friday night, and went to Jam Session too.
On the way to catching a cab from the game, we saw Michael Jordan with his boo thang outside a hotel. Lot's of instahoes and professional boppers in hotel lobbies, but security was putting in work trying to push them out.
Our cab driver turned out to be an NBA player from the 80s who just finished kicking it with Charles Barkley cause they are old buddies. He was talking about how TNT wanted to do a special on him, but he didn't feel comfortable talking about his story. I asked for his name it turns out he was the first NBA player banned due to that booger sugar and played for the Jazz and the Hawks. He kept on talking about how he was offered a coaching job but he really enjoys driving a cab and would rather do this. Found him on wiki:

I live kinda close to the Galleria area and I feel like I'm jailed in with traffic
I should've stocked up on more groceries to avoid all this craziness.
Ya'll be safe out tonite.
