Would you rather have luck, peace, or immaculate style? A ridiculous question we explore with three NBA players embodying the best of what our beautiful game offers Out Of Bounds 🏀 🤩 

Today’s Lineup

💸 Grant Williams’ Improbable Pull

They say success comes with time. Not for Grant Williams, because on the FIRST DAY of collecting basketball cards he pulled a rare Luka Doncic card worth six figures. It was initially valued at $100,000, but Grant says he’s received offers of $250K and even half a million! 💸

A perk of being an NBA player is he knows Luka himself. Williams says before he takes any other offer, he’s calling Luka to sell it to him. An act of friendship? Maybe. But Grant said he bets Doncic would buy it for a quick mil 💀 

In this video you can tell Grant’s enthusiasm is so infectious. From geeking out about trading cards to cosplaying as Batman, Grant is as nerdy as the rest of us 😅

☮️ Wiseman Brings Back the Good Vibes

When NBA fans think of James Wiseman, they may think of the hyped up #2 pick in 2020 who didn’t pan out for the Warriors. He slotted into a backup center role for the Pistons last year and joined the Pacers this offseason.

While the haters will say Wiseman failed the hype, the 23-year-old is reframing his mindset to live his best life 🔥 He re-launched his YouTube channel from 3 years ago and his videos now focus on self-confidence, self-care, and self-acceptance.

The account was getting very few views until a hater on X made fun of Wiseman for the view count. Immediately, NBA fans rushed to follow the page and prove the hater wrong. Long story short, the user deleted his account and Wiseman is getting thousands of views. Shoutout to the internet for choosing love over hate, and shoutout Wiseman for spreading the positivity 🧡

Aaron Gordon opened a pop-up shop yesterday in Denver for fans to browse his own wardrobe, some of his favorite artwork, and his G/95 signature cologne.

And the Nuggets explosive power forward pulled up to his in STYLE. Can’t say we’ve seen a set of panda-themed overalls before, but we won’t be forgetting this pair anytime soon. Gordon matches Denver free-flowing feel perfectly.

According to the local fans he spent time with, the pop-up was a roaring success! Attendees said AG was patient and warm, making sure to meet everyone, sign autographs, and take photos with kids. Gordon seems like such a laid back, down-to-earth deal and we love that he’s found a home in Denver 🙌

Signing Off

That’s a wrap for today. We wish you the luck of Grant Williams, the positivity of James Wiseman and the chill vibes of Aaron Gordon. See you tomorrow, friend ✌️
