Sound Familiar?

You're An
Unc If

01

Your knees make Rice Krispies sounds walking downstairs, and you still reminisce about how you used to high jump in junior high.

02

You watched And1 Mixtapes religiously, and your favorite baller was The Professor — because we all thought we could pull off those moves.

03

You consider Vince Carter's dunk contest in 2000 the pinnacle of human achievement.

04

You bought Reeboks solely because of Allen Iverson and probably still own them — along with those 1998 baggy shorts that could double as curtains.

05

You have brand-new basketball shoesthat haven't seen a court because: work, kids, or your ACL is one bad landing away from retirement.

06

Your kid's favorite player is LaMelo Ball, and you still can't figure out how they think Kobe isn't top 3.

Get your run. Talk your junk. Wake up Monday walking like your knees are drunk.

Your body's writing checks your knees can't cash.

Some leagues cost the same but let grown men call their own fouls. Others charge what you pay for car insurance — monthly. We brought the refs, kept the price under a pair of Jordans. Your knees are expensive enough.
