Some of the funniest commercials on television as of late are definitely the Foot Locker ads, especially the ones that involve stars from the NBA. Well there’s a new one out that happens to involve Damian Lillard, Andrew Wiggins and…Jimmy Kimmel.
Yes, the premise for the commercial is actually pretty funny. Lillard and Wiggins are walking down the street, and the Trail Blazers star tells the Timberwolves star how he too was once Rookie of the Year in the league. He also wanted to let him know that he shouldn’t let that success go to his head.
If he does in fact let the success go to his head, he’ll end up like Bobby Butter, Jimmy Kimmel’s little nod to Woody Harrelson’s role in White Men Can’t Jump.
There have been some good Foot Locker ads throughout the years, but this one is pretty good. What’s especially funny about this one is the way Kimmel plays the washed-up basketball player taking in some street ball. Of course, like he does with a lot of things, he straight up nailed it here.
