Yeah, that’s Chrissy Teigen, by the way. You know what Brook Lopez looks like.
Moving on, while Brook Lopez has been putting up big numbers throughout his five-year NBA career, the Brooklyn Nets center appears to be having a coming-out party of sorts this season. Perhaps it has something to do with the Nets moving to Brooklyn or maybe people are simply just starting to catch on to what a phenomenal big man Lopez has been during his young career.
The fact is, Brook Lopez is beginning to get noticed big time. And not only that, one of the many perks of an increasingly higher profile is the kind and caliber of people who take notice. Case in point: Supermodel Chrissy Teigen.
Teigen was at Barclays Center on Tuesday to watch the hometown Nets host the Los Angeles Lakers and the stunning model took to Twitter to gush about how much she is turning into a huge fan of Lopez.
Brook Lopez I’ve never heard of you but you’re my new favorite person ever you’re just enormous

It's not often you see NBA players air ball jump shots unless the shot gets tipped. Mirza Teletovic of the Brooklyn Nets accomplished this feat last night.....three consecutive times.
Although Mirza only averages about eight minutes and 3.4 points a game, he still needs to shoot better than this. I would almost have to compare this to a hat trick in soccer or hockey...
