Some fans talk the talk when boasting about their own skill, but one New Orleans Pelican fan decided he would walk the walk and take the ball to the court.
In a hilarious video, comedian Tony Roberts sneaks onto the court before the team’s Friday game against the Houston Rockets, stretching with the team.
Roberts was in town for DeMarcus Cousin’s Boogie’s Comedy Slam on Saturday which featured comedians Rickey Smiley, Red Grant, DC Young Fly, HAHA Davis, Robert Powell & Mark Caesar

Such a hilarious moment offered contrast to the season-ending Achilles heel injury that All-Star center DeMarcus Counsins suffered in the final moments of the game
