A source said to be close to “some dude who knows a guy who worked five years ago as a part-time custodian at a business three blocks from the United Center,” confirmed reports that Sharp and the wife of a Hawks’ player were seen at a Dunkin’ Donuts located in Winnetka.
“The gal was having a medium dark roast while Sharp drank a Frozen Hazelnut Coffee Coolata,” according to reports.
“I got an uncle who knows a guy, who is pals with a guy who works in the Hawks locker room,” the source said. “I swear on my Nana’s grave that it’s true.”
