Anytime Adam Sandler hits the court to play hoops, you know you’re going to see some magic.
That was the case on Thursday, when the actor took to the court before Arizona hosted Colorado on Thursday — he played ball with some of the managers there and looked great.
The highlights are pretty awesome. There’s a no-look pass that didn’t end in a hoop, and then an up and under in which Sandler kind of just tosses the rock up behind his head and it goes in beautifully.
If you’re looking for Hollywood’s best point guard, you’ve found it. Here’s the footage:

Fans and others loved it:
Keep an eye out. This guy Adam Sandler 5-10, 195 outta NYU. Funny guy but very serious on the court. Not as spry as he was in his SNL days, but very high IQ from years of games on set. Generous passer, sets up his friends with roles in his films.

I heard if you click the heels of your Nikes together at just the right moment, Adam Sandler just spawns into your run with a bright 4XL polo and gym shorts on to play point https://t.co/k59f3P1NJM
