Jae Crowder’s courtside dive nearly took pop star Jojo Siwa out during the Suns-Lakers game

We should really ban courtside seats at some point. It’s long overdue.

Case in point: Jae Crowder nearly dove directly into Jojo Siwa out on Tuesday night during the Lakers’ game while going for a loose ball. The way he somehow miraculously avoided Jojo Siwa after diving for a loose ball against the Lakers was incredible.

He was running toward the sideline full-speed and getting ready to dive for the ball when, all of a sudden, there were people. Right there. And one of them was Jojo Siwa.

To Siwa’s credit, she reacted pretty quickly and slid slightly out of the way. But Crowder is a big dude, man. At least relative to regular folks, anyway. They could’ve both been flying into the crowd had he not avoided her.

Luckily, he did. And all of the pre-teens around the world breathed a quick sigh of relief.

But look at how close it was! This is super dangerous.

Everyone was OK, though, so it’s all good. Plus the Suns managed to have a little bit of fun with this moment after the fact.
