Have you ever played in a 1 on 1 game against an NBA player?

Over the years I have been lucky enough to have been able to test my basketball skills against NBA players. However in each contest I was unable to pull off a victory.

I have participated in a 3 point contest against Tim Leger. I lost.

I have participated in a free throw contest against Chris Whitney. I lost.

I have participated in a game of 1 on 1 against Johnny Newman. I lost.

Have you ever played a game of 1 on 1 against an NBA player?

Ryan Gomes (He went to the same high school as me in Waterbury Ct, he comes there every summer).

Jamal Crawford
Aaron Brooks
Nate Robinson(never played him one on one but shoot around with him before)
I live out in Seattle now and these guys are always at Balieys gym in the southend of Seattle working out during the summer, they grew up here.

Not 1 on 1 but Al Jefferson lived just a couple towns over from my little podunk town in Mississippi and we played him several times

The tallest guy on my team was 6'4" and i was in for a several minutes at backup PF and C and got to "guard" him with me coming in at 6'3" and 170
Wasn't pretty hah

I think he averaged like 50 points his senior year going up against guys like me

I played against Tracy McGrady. That's why he's never been the same.

I played 21 with Andrew Bynum a couple of summers ago. It was like 5 of us playing on the court. He took it easy on us though and shot some outside shots, but i did a quick layup on him, but he posterized me a couple minutes later
