Social media has changed quite a bit in recent years, not just for normal people using mainstream apps, but also for brands and celebrities. NBA players often end up owning their brand, which means their messaging on those platforms is both curated and planned. But this wasn’t always the case, when Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram first come to the scene, a lot more players were just being themselves.
Old tweets and posts resurfacing have ended up damaging careers from time to time, and often, like in Devin Booker‘s case, they are just a little embarrassing. But for the times that some things are a little problematic, there are just as many times when their posts are just funny or harmless. And an Instagram page recently compiled old selfies NBA stars had posted online, and they drew reactions from those stars themselves.
Devin Booker: “Hell nawww”
Kyle Kuzma: “Yuck!!!”
The grainy selfies are of everyone from LeBron James to Kevin Durant to Russell Westbrook. Booker and Kuzma themselves have theirs in the lineup and it’s hard to say that the whole thing isn’t really funny. NBA fans certainly thought so, with many joining the trolling that the players themselves started.
NBA Fans Hilariously Trolled Old Photos Of NBA Stars
Hoop heads are passionate people, and fans of basketball tend to love the superstars they follow quite a lot. But the sports world is also full of banter, so when things like this happen, fans are the first to start the roasting.
“Paul George with the Heinz ketchup hairline.”
“Selfie stick savage is wild.”
“KD look like he just told his Grandma how to restart the WiFi over FaceTime lmao.”
“Nah PG’s selfie is straight up wild.”
“Kuzma def still does this.”
“Booker and AD the only normal ones.”
“Giannis looks like Mbappe.”
“Jimmy was past the generation lol.”
“PG’s line up is crazy.”
“How LeBron look older back then?”
“Selfie Stick Savage is insane.”
“Bruh, what happened to these normal days man, they seem like regular people.”
As social media has evolved, a tool once used for simple sharing has become a lot about image and production value. Kevin Durant still tweets his thoughts, so at least we have that. But for the most part, players have social media teams now that wouldn’t let them share such unfiltered images of themselves.
