A high school basketball player challenged a retired journeyman NBA player to a pickup game and got fried

• In a TikTok video, a high school basketball player challenged former NBA player Brian Scalabrine to 1-on-1.
• Scalabrine played 11 seasons in the NBA, averaging 3 points per game over his career.
• Scalabrine easily won the game, 11-0.

A high school basketball player learned the hard way that even the "worst" NBA players are still the best in the world at what they do.

In a video posted to TikTok by user Josh Lopes, a high school basketball player challenged former NBA player Brian Scalabrine to a pickup game.

Scalabrine played in the NBA from 2001-2012, averaging just 3 points in 13 minutes per game over the course of his career. He never averaged more than 7 points per game during his time in the NBA.

He was something of a cult hero for his red hair, infrequent playing time, and three-point touch. Toward the end of his career, he often only checked in at the end of games, when the result was already decided.

Still, Scalabrine, at 6-foot-9, is plenty capable of beating an anonymous high school player.

The video showed Scalabrine blocking the high school player's shot on the opening possession of 1-on-1. Scalabrine then scored four straight baskets before winning the game. According to the video, Scalabrine won 11-0.

Scalabrine joked on Twitter that his recovery from the 1-on-1 game was underway.

Of course, this isn't new territory for Scalabrine. Throughout his career, he heard trash-talk from fans that they could beat him in pickup games. After retiring, Scalabrine hosted the "Scallenge" in Boston, in which he took on four players who tried out in 1-on-1 games. He won all four by a total of 44-6.
