Matt Barnes has never backed down on a basketball court: in his 13-year NBA career, he has always had a reputation as one of the league’s toughest players and most arch defenders, and his off-court (dis)adventures have always confirmed a smoldering character to say the least, such as his famous altercation with Derek Fisher.
In the NBA, Matt Barnes wore the jerseys of the Kings, Knicks, Sixers, Warriors, Suns, Magic, Lakers, Clippers, and Grizzlies and retired in 2017, when he finally managed to win his first and only ring with the Golden State Warriors.Now 44 years old, Barnes is trying to live his life as a former athlete to the fullest, but in recent days has gone viral thanks to a video shot by himself and posted on Instagram, in which Barnes himself can be seen trying hard to chase out of his home a possum that had snuck into his kitchen.
A video all to watch!
