Gillie has previously faced off against Russ on the court as well. In season one of REVOLT TV’s The Crew League, the pair could be seen battling it out in a series of one-on-ones, with Gillie emerging victorious in an 8-2 win against the CHOMP 2 rapper. When a clip of the showdown emerged on Instagram last May, Jim Jones challenged Gillie to a game of hoops himself and said he wasn’t impressed with the podcaster’s skills.
“Kill both of y’all wit a bad shoulder u takin advantage of Russ,” Jim Jones said in the comments, but Russ said The Dipset co-founder should think twice.
“Gillie whooped me like 8-2 lmao idk how you in that crazy of shape smh show my floater tho,” Russ commented.

Over the summer, The Detroit Pistons announced the return of their retro teal-colored jerseys, and that they’d be designed by Big Sean, who was appointed the creative director of innovation for his hometown team in December.
“It was really something I threw out in the universe one day,” Big Sean told The Undefeated. “I mentioned it, like, man, ‘They need to give me a job!’ Talking about the Pistons, Red Wings, Tigers or Lions. I’m a huge Detroit fan. I’m ride or die with it. I’ve always said that, but especially with the Pistons. It’s crazy that it happened like this. I’m just truly grateful.”

In a post on Instagram on Friday (November 11), Sean Don unveiled the “City Edition” NBA jersey, and said crafting them became a “full circle” moment for the Detroit rapper.
“Chef’d these jerseys up wit the @nike team n @nba for the @detroitpistons ‘City Edition’ jerseys,” Sean began. “Paying tribute to a Detroit classic ‘St. Cecilia’s’ (hence the green). The 3stars (for the 3 championships the accumulated) and that blue outline (for Detroit being a blue collar city).”
He continued: “I actually went to St. Cecilia’s for basketball camp when i was a shorty so its full circle for real. They will wear these jerseys in game for about 10 games. They also are on sale for a limited time while supplies last.”
The jerseys are currently available on the NBA website for $119.00.
