After trying and failing to dunk on a camper, NBA fans are treated to yet another hilariously embarrassing moment courtesy of Grant Williams.

Grant Williams certainly had his fair share of viral moments this season. Like, remember when Grant dressed up and answered questions as Batman? Or the legendary free throw line declaration, when the game was tied at 109 and he promised Donavan Mitchell with 0.8 seconds left on the clock, “Imma make em both.” as he proceeded to step up to the line and completely miss both attempts.

To Grant’s credit, he has a great sense of humor when it comes to these lowlights.

Mavericks: Grant Williams is a great addition to team culture.

In the heart of the offseason, Williams came through for NBA fans yet again. During his first annual camp, Grant Williams supplied NBA fans with a blooper that most wouldn’t expect from a professional athlete.

All of this fun took place at Williams’ inaugural free basketball camp, held in his hometown of Charlotte, North Carolina. This was a free camp for inner-city kids in the community, with breakfast and lunch provided.

According to Charlotte Observer’s sports columnist, Langston Wertz Jr, “Williams goal? Give athletes — and non-athletes — some help towards making their dreams come true, through opportunity, mentorship and financial literacy.”

After signing a four-year, $53 million deal as part of a sign and trade, former Boston Celtic Grant Williams is now a Dallas Maverick. In his fourth season with the Celtics, Williams averaged a career-high 8.1 points and 4.6 rebounds. If you’re the Mavericks, the 6-foot-6 forward’s defensive ability is much needed, especially after losing Reggie Bullock.

It’ll be fun to see Grant Williams suit up for the Mavericks and all the viral moments that are bound to ensue. Luka, Kyrie, and Grant in a locker room? Get your popcorn ready, Mavs fans.
