The Warriors dominated this week and registered a thumping 132-95 win against the Spurs. Steph Curry blazed across the court. But it was Garoppolo who became the talk of the night.

George Kittle, Kyle Juszczyk, and the newcomer, Christian McCaffrey, accompanied Jimmy G on the sidelines. That’s when the unexpected moment took place. A group of Golden State Warriors dancing girls approached them and specifically greeted the quarterback with a casual ‘Hello’ and handshakes.

 

The cheerleaders only seemed interested in Garoppolo and disregarded his teammates sitting next to him. All the cameras were focused on the Niners squad, who are currently improving their season record for the No. 1 spot in the NFC West.

If things had turned out according to the plan, Garoppolo was not supposed to be wearing the 49ers jersey because he happened to be a trade bait this season. After spending five seasons with the team, the management was in search of a new landing spot for the veteran; however, they couldn’t find one and placed him as a backup option.

The starting quarterback, Trey Lance’s unexpected ankle injury, turned the tables. Soon Garoppolo got elevated to his previous position. And guess what? He has performed fairly well this season with five wins and is eying to secure a top spot in the division. This attitude seems to have attracted the audience of the Bay area, especially the young female fans falling for him.
