DaBaby became a sensation online when he successfully made a half-court shot at a local park, winning a bet with a group of kids for their sneakers. The video of the rapper playfully challenging the kids, agreeing that if he missed the shot, he would give them $100 each, but if he made it, he would get their sneakers, went viral on social media. Despite missing on his first attempt, DaBaby managed to hit the shot on his second try, leading to a humorous exchange as he collected the kids' shoes. This light-hearted event contrasted with DaBaby's ongoing legal battles, including a lawsuit filed by his ex-girlfriend's brother alleging an assault by the rapper and his team at a California bowling alley. The motion to dismiss the lawsuit emphasized issues with serving legal documents and the statute of limitations.
