Ex-Warrior Stephen Jackson admits to smoking weed before games
Former Warriors forward Stephen Jackson admitted in a recent podcast that he occasionally smoked marijuana before games.
“I just gotta be real, you know, it’s been a couple games where I smoked before games and had great games,” Jackson said on the “I Am Rapaport: Stereo Podcast” with actor Michael Rapaport. “It’s been some games where I smoked before the game and was on the bench after three minutes sitting on the sideline, ‘Please calm down, this high has to calm down’ —I done shot three shots that went over the backboard, like, I’m going to be honest, like, ‘Ahh, I gotta calm down.’”
