He’d be a monster at tight end

[–] c0kEzz@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

Cool that he wants to win one with Minnesota. I hope he never leaves for the NFL.

[–] Insufferable-Asshat@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

Ant got smooth skin man damn

[–] Punjabiveer30@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

A1 from Day1, it’s like y’all don’t listen to him

[–] GentrifvsWhiteflight@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

Other guy has a face for radio

[–] GGezpzMuppy@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Would’ve gone first in the Baseball draft, NFL draft and NHL draft

[–] Ghost6x@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Of all the men's NBA players of all time (so far) he seems like the most 'complete' human being - by far. Skilled, tough, smart, beautiful, extensive world travels and has lived in the 3rd world for long periods, speaks multiple languages, tactical firearms training/enthusiast, dancer, film/arts school, actress, outdoorsy, etc.

You can tell he genuinely has his shit together, like he could probably be a millionaire running just about any business, if he wanted.

Are there any other male NBA players that impressive?

[–] heavensandwiches@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Lmao we casually forgetting the homophobia last offseason huh

[–] Ghost6x@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

It's a copypasta my dude

[–] sawhero@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

How the hell does someone playing for Minnesota not know who Bud Grant is?

[–] Ocean_Bee@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

What’s with the White Sox hat? Isn’t he from Atlanta?

[–] tapk69@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

Common bruh, he passes the ball often

[–] cock-a-dooodle-do@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

He is like a funnier non threatening version of MJ who is still as dangerous and charismatic as MJ.

[–] SimmonsClearsHartubs@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

The aura on my glorious king 😩😩

American football is a low skill sport so he probably could just because of how physically gifted he is

[–] DigOlBick99@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

Hell if MJ can play baseba—wait a second!

[–] SuperSayian4Nappa@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

When ANT says this shit we all laugh and say maybe. When I say it I have to get off school grounds, and I've used up all my warnings.

[–] NedStarx11@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

He probably could

[–] Jarmeh@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

Love that he said winning one with Minnesota and not just winning one period.

I know he could still bounce and get a ring somewhere else in the future - but it is nice to hear

[–] pollinium@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

what i'm hearing is he gone

3 peating, going to the falcons, and returning in 2 years

[–] djkhan23@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Who are the two sport players?

Deon Sanders, Bo Jackson, anyone else major?

If he could make it in the NFL then he'd be the first nba player to do it I believe

[–] VikingsTillWeDie@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

Dave Winfield was a 12x All Star in the MLB and was drafted by the Vikings in 73. He never played though.

[–] Beautiful_Ninja@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

I mean the Jets are about to start a QB so bad that he left noted dumpster fire tier school UCONN to move down to FCS to get playing time.

ANT is probably better at passing a ball than Tim Boyle.

[–] fragglebags@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

He can't but if he chose to pursue an NFL career as late as his senior year he would be on an NFL roster by next year. He is a freak.

[–] punnilinguist@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

Reminds me of the time Jimmy said he could be a top tier NFL receiver and KD told him he's an idiot

[–] materics@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

Win 3 for Minny and then retire to the NFL for one season and then win 3 more for Minny.

[–] robograndpa@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

Ish Wainright erasure

Why do I like Ant so much for no reason?

Marco is just joking

He’s a comedian / content creator and he messes around like this often. His interviews are supposed to be funny

For the people wondering lol

[–] Pretend-Square8686@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

Then go try, be a baseball player like Jordan.

[–] Lol69HaHaHa@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

I respect his confidence. Sadly its alsp the reason i want him tk lose badly. Ngl the Heat making it to the finals again and beating the Timberwolves for the title would be poetic as hell. That would just be legendary and make Butler feel like a basketball demigod...so anyway thats what im hopping to happen if the Nuggets dont win it all.

[–] Natujr@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

Can't convince me that's not Michael Jordans son

[–] carscatsdogs@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

How do you not love this guy. He should be the face of the nba

[–] coyote_snap@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

what position would ant play?

[–] Elegant-String-2629@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

playing in the NFL is much easier than playing in the NBA.

[–] FloridaMan6011@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

New man on the Minnesota Vikings

[–] Slim-Ticket@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

This whole video was hilarious btw https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Pou48o4MSrQ&t=639s

Especially the bit with the chicken 🤣

[–] Trexfromouterspace@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago (1 children)

At least from a measurables perspective, most NBA players would slide perfectly onto an NFL roster. For example, multiple NFL star tight ends were college basketball players (Jimmy Graham and Antonio Gates being the most well-known).

In Ant's case, he has basically the same frame as DK Metcalf. When DK was drafted, he was listed at "6-3 3/8, 228 pounds with an impressive wingspan of his own of 82 7/8." Anthony Edwards was listed at 6'4, 225 pounds, and a 6'9" wingspan, or 81 inches. Dude has the physical attributes of an elite wide receiver.

Now I wouldn't go so far as to say he'll actually be able to play in the NFL (and am really not in a position to), but it's almost a given that he could have if he had chosen football in high school.

[–] _Vaudeville_@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago (1 children)

DK ran a 4.33 40 yard dash

Ant likely can’t even run a sub 4.6

But of a difference there

Maybe. Maybe not. Maybe no one gives a shit brah

[–] Nyk0demus@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

I’m not doubting him, he’s a hell of an athlete

[–] Complete-Disaster513@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

If he wins a championship for the timberwolves I guarantee Minnesota will let him start at qb for the Vikings if he wants and we will still retire his jersey in both sports. No matter how bad he is at football.

[–] LibtardsWillReportU@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

No nba player is playing in the nfl. They can’t handle a fucking hand check without crying like a baby to the ref. NEXT

[–] arika_ito@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

He could but are the concussions worth it?

[–] ispcanner@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago (2 children)

Uh ohhh he speaks in Ebonics….If you call him a homophobe are YOU the one that’s a racist ? Would love people to truly think on this and that we can all actually get along but it will never happen bc of wokeness

Did Ant recently get those hoop earrings? He reminds me of Jordan more and more every day. Ha and now he’s even talking about switching sports 😂

[–] Individual_Attempt50@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

Funniest guy

[–] Acrobatic_Switches@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

Ant on the Lions would be nasty.

[–] tixace4089@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

I think a lot of NBA players could play in the NFL - a lot would be great receivers right? or am i oversimplifying it?
