Memphis Grizzlies center Steven Adams has been known for some funny antics on the basketball court. And on Monday afternoon, he was up to his tricks.
During the MLK Day affair against the Bulls, Ja Morant was getting into a little scuffle with Bulls center Tony Bradley. As Adams was restraining Bradley, he lifted up the heavyset center and carried him away from the scene.
It was an objectively funny series of events. Check it out:

watched this at least a hundred times now and the best part was the two seconds the refs were looking at each other trying to figure out which of them was going to attempt to stop Steven Adams from carrying Tony into the Pacific Ocean if he wanted to. pic.twitter.com/DmagmDRXC8

Steven Adams and the Grizzlies took care of the shorthanded Bulls, winning 119-106. Adams finished the game with just two points, but added 10 rebounds and six assists during the tilt.
I think the big man should have been given an extra assist for picking up Tony Bradley from his young superstar.
With the win, Memphis improved to an impressive 31-15 record on the season, good for fourth place in the highly-competitive Western Conference.
Steven Adams has been around the league a long time. And it appears as though he knows how to handle a little interaction at this point.
