Sophia Pippen is the youngest of Scottie Pippen's four children with his now ex-wife. Fans were left in splits recently after she was able to trick the Hall of Fame forward with the latest social media trend.
One of the main bits going around on TikTok right now is the "give me my money" trend. The main premise is to make it seem like every person is going to get applauded for their impression, but the last one is always left hanging.
After falling victim to this trend, Scottie Pippen ended up posting the clip on social media. This resulted in an array of reactions from NBA fans in the comment section.

Other fans brought up his days with the Chicago Bulls, implying he used this same phrase with former GM Jerry Krause.
"They Jerry Krause’d you," one fan said.
"That what Krause did when y’all negotiated that new contract," another fan said.
"That was sadly you for six years talking to the Jerry’s!" Another fan said.
The reference is in regards to Pippen signing a seven-year deal with the Bulls in 1991 for $19 million. As he emerged as a versatile forward who helped the franchise win multiple titles, he was one of the most underpaid players in the league. Despite wanting a new contract, Pippen was never able to work anything out with Krause.

Before he was getting caught up in social media trends with his kids, Scottie Pippen was in Paris for the 2024 Olympics. The six-time champion was one of the many big names sitting courtside to take in the gold medal matchup on Saturday.
The star-studded Team USA roster battled it out with France to see who would finish the tournament in the top spots. Behind strong play from their star players, the United States was able to take down the host country and win gold.
Scottie Pippen was with his own group of stars on Saturday afternoon to take in this action. Among the people he was sitting with were Carmelo Anthony, Pau Gasol and WNBA legend Sue Bird.
During his playing career, Pippen had the chance to represent his country in the Olympics on two occasions.
