It’s been a rough week for Memphis Grizzlies guard Dillon Brooks.
Just a few days after the second-seeded Grizzlies saw their season end in a 40-point Game 6 loss to the Lakers, Brooks was essentially shown the door by the Grizzlies.
Brooks had been a major focus in the series given his trash talk about LeBron and dismal play on the court. And according to The Athletic, the Grizzlies wanted no part of Brooks going forward. The Grizzlies reportedly informed Brooks’ camp that they would not re-sign Brooks under any circumstance this offseason. As expected, the reaction across NBA Twitter was swift.
But man, they really had to roast the CBA’s Guangdong Southern Tigers in the process.

While there are five NBA teams out there that may target Brooks, some NBA fans took to the Guangdong Tigers’ Wikipedia page and added Brooks to the roster.
Brooks had a rough series, sure, but I don’t think he’s at CBA-level shambles quite yet. That didn’t stop the Wikipedia edits, though.
This was how Twitter reacted
Yo!!!! I am crying at the Wikipedia page for the Guangdong Tigers. The internet is undefeated. Who put Dillon Brooks and Trae Young?!!!! 🤣🤣🤣🤣 pic.twitter.com/qmByo1uqaO

The page was eventually edited back to show the actual Tigers roster, but NBA Twitter is just relentless.
