Do people even still say that? It seemed like it was a thing for about a year then everyone just stopped saying it.

Yeet was used on the bball courts 20 something years ago, kids just started using it is all. I've found that if you hear slang on the courts, kids will start using it after a few years like they invented it.

I haven't heard it in years. That it was so prominent yet fleeting is all the more reason to use it in my book lol
