Upset Of The Year: We Got A Shockingly Decent Mixtape Of Pete Davidson Playing Some Pickup Basketball At UNLV

Gotta be honest here, I did NOT expect this in the slightest. I mean, sure, he's no Adam Sandler, but shockingly okay is better than I would have guessed. I know I have to defend Pete as a fellow lefty basketball player. We gotta stick together. We gotta scream about how everything looks prettier as a lefty - not my words, the words of the great Bill Raftery describing Tayshaun Prince here. 

I'm also well aware that if you slow highlights down enough people can look good doing anything. But, still, he made shots. That's a big win in this sort of world. That little finish on the first play? Not shabby for a guy that I would have assumed is wildly uncoordinated, especially in terms of basketball. We can even look past the blatant travel for the dunk attempt. Then again, Pete should be able to dunk. Look at those gangly ass limbs. 

Also pretty clear the defense is what we'd describe as, bad, trash even. But the man made an outlet pass that looked like late-era Broncos Peyton Manning trying to air a duck out 25 yards. Maybe next time get the man a little better outfit to play in? You gotta go baggy t-shirt or regular ass practice jersey.
