I’ve not spent much time wonder what Knicks ambassador Baron Davis is up to during his summer vacation, figuring it couldn’t be all that different than whatever he does during the basketball season. However, the NY Post’s Justin Terranova transcribes a tale that might be the most harrowing experience an MSG employee can endure, short of being forced to watch this.
“I was actually abducted by aliens like two weeks ago,” the two-time NBA All-Star announced on this week’s “The Champs” podcast.
“Is that right?” hosts Neal Brennan and Moshe Kasher ask him in the Los Angeles-based comedy broadcast. “Tell us about that.”
Davis then launches into a several-minute-long description of driving from Vegas to L.A. and suddenly finding himself getting poked in the eyes by “f—ing ugly mother f—ers” in a steel spaceship.
“I’m a little tired and s—,” he begins. “And I see this light and I think it’s a big ass truck, you know, like, aww, f—. Like it’s gonna be traffic.
“And I was driving, driving, then next thing you know, dude, like, I was in this f—ing like steel thing and these f—ing crazy looking peole, like half-human, half, like, f—ing ugly motherf—ers,” he tells the podcast hosts.
Brennan, a co-writer of Chappelle’s Show, and Kasher, a noted stand-up comic, seem taken aback, and repeatedly ask the NBA star if he is serious or not.
Davis insists on the podcast that, “Hell yeah, dude,” he is not kidding. , “Dude,” he protests, “they were poking me on my nose and sh–.”
He adds, “They were poking me on my nose, they were looking me in my eyes, they had my hands tied up.”
Davis promises he has a book coming out about his alien experiences. He also tells the hosts, without elaborating, that he has licensed the rights to “Black Santa.”
