Mormon ballers in the hood: Missionaries dunk, dominate pickup game
- 11 years ago
In a bid to prove that white men can in fact jump, two Texas-based Mormon missionaries completely dominated a pickup basketball game in a video making the rounds online.
In a textbook hustle, the pair asked to play a game of street ball in Dallas claiming they were 'just some white boys'.
The two evangelists initially tried to pass for chumps, but they quickly introduced their opponents to their prophet "Joseph SWISH!"
The two took control of the rock and thoroughly schooled their opponents.
The video ends with one of the messengers delivering a monster dunk that was apparently so epic it immediately ended the game.
Our reenactment of the game may be a tad over the top. But if you only saw the insane and completely bananas reaction from the opponents you'd have thought they just witnessed something far more impressive than just a caucasian man dunking on what appears to be an 8-foot net.
In the original description of the video, Youtube user Jared Allen provides a bit of context to the footage:
"My cousin Cole, a missionary in Dallas Texas, has been dying to play some street ball and got the chance. After playing it cool asking to play because they are "Just some white boys", they were allowed to play and tried to make it look like they weren't that good. That is until they started to play. Turn up the volume and laugh hysterically. Cole proves that white boys can jump.
"Go to 1 Minute to see the best part
"Best part of the story is that one of the guy's daughters ended up getting Baptized.
"He actually was on a State Champ basketball team where he can dunk a regulation size hoop. He has over a 40" Vert. but doing this in his dress shoes is even better"
