3. Kyrie Irving (Uncle Drew)
The commercials were enough to seal the deal but the movie was actually much better than I thought it was going to be.
2. Kareem Abdul-Jabbar (Airplane)
He fought Bruce Lee, thats legendary in itself. But nothing tops Capt. Roger Murdock. I’m not sure he’d last in today’s social media driven climate though. Let that little boy troll him in the cockpit and get him riled up. He’d get eaten alive by the internet.
1. Marques Johnson (White Men Can’t Jump)
Certified hood legend. The only 6’8″ dude within 20 miles and he tried to rob the liquor store with a ski mask. The best part about all of this is he tried to change his voice after he got figured out. However, I’m still disappointed at the frequency (or lack thereof) that someone has said to me “Raymond? Is that you?” Y’all really have squandered some golden opportunities.
SN: I’m surprised they’re letting basketball players act anymore after KD did Thunderstruck. That was unspeakable trash. He almost ruined it for everyone.
