Miami HEAT Sources Say NBA Youngboy Left Locker Room With Noticeable Marijuana Odor

The Miami Heat organization faces a persistent challenge early this season: unpleasant remnants from NBA YoungBoy concerts in arena locker rooms the night prior to their games. Players have raised concerns about the visiting locker rooms' condition, specifically mentioning a strong, distinguishable odor linked to heavy marijuana use stemming from the rapper’s performances. This problem has compelled arena staff to perform thorough cleaning regimens just hours before the Heat's scheduled shootarounds or games.This issue has recurred multiple times this season following games held shortly after YoungBoy's shows. For example, in San Antonio, signs indicated that locker rooms were temporarily shut down for cleaning due to overpowering odors post-concert. The frustration among players and staff directly affects their pre-game preparation, disrupting their high standards of discipline and organization, a hallmark of Head Coach Erik Spoelstra’s approach. While the NBA has not formally addressed this issue, venues are reportedly conscious of scheduling overlaps between major concerts and games.
