New York Knicks wing Josh Hart made a hilarious mistake while passing the ball during a victory over the Bulls on Wednesday.
Hart took the ball up the court in transition and had a 5-on-4 advantage for a fastbreak. But he got a little carried away and rather than throwing the ball to one of his teammates, he threw the ball way into the stands for a turnover.
It was a hilarious blunder to see the ball travel so far into the stands like a foul ball in baseball. It was funny on its own but even funnier when you saw his reaction to what happened.
Any clue to who Josh Hart was throwing this pass to? 💀 #Shaqtin pic.twitter.com/xr3DhuecHX

After the game, Hart posted a meme on Twitter of this silly possession. Instead of a basketball court, the background of the photo was changed to a football field and suddenly everything made a lot more sense.
Hart looked a lot like a quarterback thinking some variation of the meme: “Screw it, my receiver is down there somewhere.”

Hart tagged the Washington Commanders on Twitter and told the NFL team to holler at him for consideration at quarterback.
This was an awesome way for Hart to turn an embarrassing situation into something that all sports fans could easily enjoy.
