Grizzlies guard Desmond Bane just had the most eerie Feb. 2 stat line in NBA history

This has to be one of the weirdest occurrences in NBA history. I don’t even know quite how to accurately describe it.

The best way to put it is this: Desmond Bane just had one of the most bizarre games you’ll ever see. On a regular night, we’d just describe it as an “off night.” He didn’t shoot the ball well at all after going 4-18 from the field.

For those doing the math, that’s 22% from the floor. But that’s where things just start to get weird.

Bane also had two blocks, two assists, two steals, two fouls and two turnovers. That’s already a whooooole lot of twos on top of the 22% from the field.

But — oh, wait! — I forgot to mention that Bane’s number is actually 22. And he did all of this on February 2nd in 2022. Number 22 dropped all these 2s on 2/2/22.

Fam.

This is so weird. Even Bane himself was creeped out.

Ja Morant was just as confused as we all were.

For those of you who invested in Doomsday bunkers, now is your time to shine. Because I’m preeeeetty sure this is a sign. Like, who does this?

NBA fans thought this was wild.
