Trolling Cade courtside is wild 😭 (via durtydude/TT)

What did you think?

The courtside seats come with a chance to be heard. In a clip shared by Fanatics, a spectator uses that access to put a very specific basketball argument to Cade Cunningham: Chino Hills' 2016 team would beat Montverde's 2020 squad.

Cunningham has a personal stake in that comparison. He played for that Montverde team, alongside future NBA player Scottie Barnes. Chino Hills, meanwhile, had Lonzo, LiAngelo and LaMelo Ball together, making this a debate with plenty of recognizable names behind it.

The fan calls out, "2016 Chino Hills taking them." Cunningham turns, prepares to shoot and supplies his verdict: "You outta your damn mind." Then he makes the basket, with the courtside group laughing and reacting to the reply.

Fanatics' repost, credited to durtydude on TikTok, drew an estimated 580,000 views in its first day. A usual Short on the channel gets fewer than 3,000 over that stretch, making this brief exchange an unusually large draw.

Several commenters bring up a scoring performance they associate with the game, though the clip itself is about the high school argument, not the scoreboard. Others recognize the courtside group from the television coverage. The spectators came prepared with a take; Cunningham managed his rebuttal and his shot in the same motion.
