Misbar’s Analysis
Adam Sandler, a 55 year old American actor and comedian, has starred on the TV show Saturday Night Live and in multiple movies including Airheads, Happy Gilmore, and Eight Crazy Nights. What some don’t know about him is his love of basketball. According to Lakersdaily.com, Sandler has been playing pick-up basketball with some NBA players this summer.
Sandler’s love of basketball has also seeped into his professional life with his forthcoming film Hustle. In the upcoming Netflix movie, Sandler plays a fired basketball scout who discovers a talented international player and tries to prove he can make it in the NBA.
Sandler’s basketball hobby has made fans question whether or not he should be included in the next version of the video game NBA 2K. While there are no immediate plans advertised, an executive for NBA 2K, Ronnie Singh, has apparently shouted out to Adam Sandler, telling him they should talk.
