Top 10 NBA-Celebrity Look-a-likes

While watching the Boston Celtics-Orlando Magic playoff series recently, a friend of mine said to me, ‘Hey man, you notice how much Brian Scalabrine looks like Michael Rappaport, but not as cool’. I told him I thought he was crazy, that aside from the reddish hair they didn’t look much alike. From there, the conversation led to a full blown competition between the two of us to try and name NBA players who look a lot like some celebrity or another. Sadly, this is how we amuse ourselves during time outs, commercial breaks, and half-time. But to ensure our useless conversation didn’t go to waste, I thought I better put together what I thought were the Top 10 NBA-Celebrity Look-a-likes from that day for your enjoyment:
10. Rodney Stuckey, 50-Cent

9. Kevin Eubanks, Chucky Atkins

8. Kirk Hinrich, Jason Biggs

7. Corey Maggette, Xzibit

6. Sebastian Telfair, Phil Ivey

5. Pharrell Williams, Caron Butler

4. Method Man, Kenyon Martin

3. Toni Kukoc, Hugh Jackman

2. Manu Ginobili, Bronson Pinchot

1. Stan Van Gundy, Ron Jeremy







You didn’t put Luis Scola of the Houston Rockets and Russel Brand.

Trevor Ariza & Chance (from “I Love New York” and “Real Chance of Love” fame). I know he’s not really a “celebrity” but the resemblance is uncanny.
Also, sticking with the reality tv theme, Ben Roethlisberger and Jason from Laguna Beach & The Hills.

An NBA lookalike list without Sam Cassell-Alien from E.T. and Tyrone Hill-Donkey from Shrek is not credible
