In an exciting twist of events, streamer PlaqueBoyMax recently secured a date with former WNBA star Liz Cambage after triumphing in a one-on-one basketball match against her. This unique opportunity arose over the weekend when Max edged out the ex-Las Vegas Aces player, who had hung up her sneakers just three years prior.
After losing the first round with a score of 16–14, Max made a remarkable comeback to win the rematch 21–20. Footage from their match reveals the striking contrast in height between the two, with Cambage towering over Max, who appeared to be working hard to keep pace with the formidable athlete.
During a brief pause in the game, Max enthusiastically remarked, "Can't wait to take you on a date, I'm not gonna lie," showcasing his excitement about the unexpected prize. By the conclusion of their lighthearted competition, Cambage playfully accused Max of having "cheated the whole time," yet they both shared a warm moment as they posed for a gym picture together. In a light-hearted post on her Instagram Story, Cambage wrote, "We both won!"
The aftermath of this game was filled with disbelief from Cambage, who expressed her astonishment at losing by commenting with multiple eye roll emojis on Complex's Instagram recap of the event. Not only will she be going on a date with Max, but she also agreed to get a tattoo of his choosing as part of the deal.
This victory is part of a remarkable year for Max, as he has also received his first Grammy nomination for his track "Victory Lap," featuring Fred Again.. and Skepta, in the Best Dance/Electronic Recording category. He will be competing against notable artists such as Kaytranada, Tame Impala, and Skrillex during the 68th Annual Grammy Awards, which are scheduled to air on Sunday, February 1. It will be intriguing to see who takes home the coveted award!
