What did you expect, kid? You don’t go into the 2014-15 National Basketball Association Developmental League Defensive Player of the Year’s house and live to tell about it. There’s really not that much to say about this other than

PS My first piece of athletic advice to my children will be “If you’re ever given the opportunity to take it to the rack on a fully grown adult, DO NOT DO IT.” These things never end in a nice, uncontested layup for the kids.

Highlights:

How bout ‘Ol 12 Gauge here just putting on an absolute CLINIC? I don’t get excited very often but I’m absolutely shocked by this. In no universe did I ever think I’d see Josh McCown throwing down alley oops and crossing dudes like The Professor from the And 1 Mixtape Tour. Had no idea the guy had it in him. It’s so weird seeing the 12 year veteran QB (who’s white as snow) being the best basketball player in a gym of super talented NFL receivers and skill guys.

After listening to Josh’s interview this morning with Rizzo on The Really Big Show and seeing him ball, it’s so easy to root for a guy like him. Frankly, he might be my new favorite player.
