When Jordan Bell first moved to the Bay Area, he posted an Instagram photo featuring his dog and the view from his Oakland apartment on the shores of Lake Merritt.

The vantage point was enough, unfortunately, for someone to narrow down where he lived. The Warriors rookie soon realized he had a stalker.

Bell tells the terrifying tale in a recent Mercury News article. The incident happened in September, right as Bell was reporting to his first Warriors training camp. As a result of the stalker, Bell had to move.

He nearly had to move again when, a few months later, he realized another Instagram video he'd posted showed his neighborhood. He deleted it, and luckily, no subsequent stalking episodes have occurred.

Despite the harrowing off-the-court distraction, Bell put together a memorable rookie season, playing in 57 games and amassing a few thundering dunks along the way.
