I hope there are still fans of Austin Rivers from his HoopMixTape days. I remember watching those vids of him crossing over pathetic high-school defenders and thinking “man that white guy really has some handles”. And I wasn’t wrong. He has a nice crossover, and you cannot even begin to tell me that he is not a white person. Just look at the thumbnail person. He’s frickin’ pink.
He might have gained a few fans from his play with the Clippers, which was sometimes sorta okay. Definitely no new fans from his short stint with the ‘Zards so far, though. He’s been bad, the team’s been bad, and then he called out the team for being bad even though he was a main contributor to the badness.
I’m a little late to the party with this vid, so no one’s gonna watch it, but this is Rivers’ best game of the season by quite a bit. It was so good that his team somehow won the game. So good that that Wizards commentator who is a dude actually sounded a little excited for once.
