Adam Sandler Gains NBA Twitter Respect After Video Goes Viral
Happy Gilmore star Adam Sandler spotted spending an afternoon in Long Island playing basketball with fans.
The internet exploded after a social media user posted a video clip of the game.
Sandler has been a long-time Knicks fan and has often been spotted sitting court-side at games, alongside other famous faces including Jack Nicholson.
The actor’s love for basketball often finds a way into his movies and he is notorious for his chilled out personality.
The video, that surfaced earlier this week, proves, once again, that Sandler is just a regular guy.
He turns up in an extremely baggy polo and shorts and carrying out some impressive passes to the other players.
His moves caught the attention and approval of NBA Twitter, including NBA legend Baron Davis:
Adam Sandler is a baller. You want to be on his team in pickup. He throws dimes!!! https://t.co/fPpwFrT9Xv

A series of memes have been produced in response to the video and one user, @BaileyCarlin, lightly joked about Sandler‘s chosen attire:
