For those who don't know, 27-year-old Ingram and 25-year-old Simons each share the same baby momma, Aaleeyah Petty, who is a 30-year-old Instagram model with 1.3 million followers.
In view of how the game unfolded, down the stretch the score was 103-103 and Brandon Ingram was going one-on-one with none other than Simons. With six seconds on the clock 6'8" Ingram did a 360-fadeaway jumper over the 6'3" Simons.
And it seems the teammates knew the situation, as following the shot, they were heard saying, "Yeah twin, tell her who better, tell her who better."

To point out, Pelicans forward Brandon Ingram, shares a five-year old child son with Petty, and was seen attending his birthday party in 2022. Nevertheless, as he keeps his relationships private, Ingram's dating life with the social media influencer has been undisclosed.

Then with Simons, it got leaked that he was the father of Petty's unborn child in 2023, as he attended the baby shower when she was pregnant.
Last season, the IG model posted a picture captioned, "+1 coming 02.24." And although she didn't announce the NBA player as the father, in the picture behind Petty, there was a sign that read, "Welcome Baby Simons."
And despite no pictures being posted of his face, fans noticed the tattoos on his wrist matched up with Simons.
So NBA fan detectives used deductive reasoning to infer that the Trailblazers star was in fact the father.
While it is unknown either player's actual current relationship with Petty, Ingram definitely got one up on Simons during Friday night's victory.
