Spud Webb Coaching Strippers in Hoops

16 Comments

First there was lingerie football, now there’s stripper basketball.

Enter Spud Webb. The former NC State and NBA standout has put forth a good post-playing career during which he is currently the President of the Texas Legends (the Dallas Mavericks’ D-League affiliate). But that doesn’t mean that he’s no longer a showman.

Webb will coach basketball team full of strippers from Rick’s Cabaret in New York City – supposedly one of the city’s top gentlemen’s clubs (we wouldn’t know).

Best known for his 1986 Slam Dunk title as a member of the Atlanta Hawks, the 5-foot-7 Webb played in the NBA for four teams from 1985-98. He landed at Midland Junior College in Texas before playing under Jim Valvano at NC State.

“These ladies are fabulous and have obvious talents and skills. I can’t think of a better way to entertain long-suffering NBA fans,” Webb said during a Monday press conference.

“He’s a hero to people of all sizes and he shows that anyone can accomplish anything,” said Gianna, a PG on the New York team which will compete against other strip clubs from Rick’s Cabaret International, Inc. in the “Rick’s Basketball Association.” “Of course we are happy the NBA is coming back in December–they are some of our best customers. We’ll play ‘til the NBA season starts because our fans and customers want it.”

Will this latest gig be a career highlight? Spud Webb profile

  • Spud what about the kids?

    I spoke with my son about spud webb and how great he was. I told him that spud worked hard, never gave up, was a great ambassador of basketball, and was a great dunker. My son was very excited. He told me “really dad he was that great?” I said yes he was. He then goes online to learn more and finds this. As a parent this is my fault. What has this world come to. There are many kids and adults that are very disappointed with Spud Webb. This is very Sad. Hope it was worth it.

    • Seriously

      Your kidz aren’t spuds job! For god sakes the reason America is going down the crapper is no one here will take any responsibility for anything. Just always passing the buck. If your kid grows up to be an idiot its your fault.

      Public figures don’t have to live their lives for the benefit or your kids. USA has turned into a bunch of winy bitch a***s constantly pointing the finger at someone else. Its supposed to be a free country let the man be free he is f*****g old and will die soon enough like the rest of us. Be glad you can sit on your a** and criticize everyone else. In some countries you actually have to do something useful with yourself to stay alive.

      You and the only insecure chick in the room “SUI” make me sick with your b*****g.
