“Get him outta here.”
When New Orleans Pelicans center Anthony Davis barked out those instructions while shooting a commercial video, he thought he was trying to rid the set of a grumpy, meddling maintenance man.
But he was the one not in on the joke.
The “maintenance man” was actually Karl Malone — the 14-time All-Star and Hall of Famer with the Utah Jazz. And while Redbull, who shot the video, had to do various gimmicks with Malone somewhat obscured to conceal his 6-foot-10 height, Davis was clearly surprised (though afterward he put together some of the clues).
“Now it’s making sense,” he said. “Y’all knew about this.”
Davis, of course, is a five-time All-Star himself, and the two reportedly shared some words off camera at The Mailman’s request.
The video is loaded with Jazz references if you’re looking for them. Count as many as you can here.
