"Uncle Drew" The Kyrie Irving Experiment

Tweet

In keeping with the new slogan of Pepsi MAX as “A zero calorie cola in disguise,” witness 2011 NBA rookie of the year Kyrie Irving of the Cleveland Cavaliers take to a pickup game in Bloomfield, New Jersey disguised as the elderly “Uncle Drew.” The players that night thought they were witnessing a documentary being shot on one member named Kevin, but when a player gets injured, Kevin’s creaky old “Uncle Drew” steps in. It takes the old man a few minutes to get warmed up, but once he does, it’s not long before he starts turning up the heat and unleashing his full arsenal of long range jumpers, ankle-breaking crossovers, and alley-oops on his unsuspecting “youngblood” opponents. And be sure to stick around until the end of the video to see how makeup artists meticulously transformed Kyrie into Uncle Drew.
