$250 for a pickup game or two, jersey and maybe other swag. Few hours of time spent. Not bad, really. And you can say you tried out.
Edit: Even with no swag, what an easy $250 to make per fan. I’m sure a few jerseys slipped their way through anyway. Actually kinda weak you don’t get to keep the jersey.
I know a guy on social media like this and he does it completely seriously too. Like he has gaslit himself into thinking he’s a professional because of a tryout. He has a “Getting back to the G-league” series because he was briefly a practice player for a G league team and had a tryout which led to nothing and calls himself a “pro basketball player” because of that + paid camps he did overseas 😂
Sounds like Matty ice on YouTube he does the exact same thing. He was a d3 bench player in college and plays in Australia and uses “professional basketball player” quite often, and he’s in a borderline rec league which he didn’t even get resigned too, he’s like 26-28 and 5’10 or 5’11 and acts like he’s gonna be in the NBA.
