Rookie Prank Gone Wild: Jaylon Tyson's Car Filled with Popcorn After Missing Doughnut Duty
Cleveland Cavaliers rookie Jaylon Tyson faced a hilarious prank after failing to bring doughnuts for his teammates, as his car was filled with popcorn.
When NBA rookies are given a task from the veterans, it is crucial for them to deliver. After the Cleveland Cavaliers' 109-104 win over the Brooklyn Nets on Tuesday night, rookie forward Jaylon Tyson was greeted with a surprise in the team parking garage.
Tyson had been tasked with bringing his Cleveland teammates doughnuts, but he didn't deliver. As the former California standout shamefully approached his car with his head down, Cavaliers guard Donovan Mitchell, who sat out against Brooklyn with a groin injury, told Tyson to "Take that walk."
Tyson opened the driver's door of his blacked-out four-door coupe to find it filled with popcorn. "Bring the doughnuts," the team hilariously shouted as Tyson opened the door, cackling. Mitchell even took a handful of popcorn from the vehicle and ate it: "S--- good, too," he said.
Mitchell seemed to hint at the prank during the Cavaliers' win as he sat on the bench eating a box of popcorn. Cleveland clinched their first division title since the 2017-18 season in their Tuesday win, marking their first title without LeBron James since the 1975-76 season, according to ESPN Research.
Tyson, the No. 20 pick of the 2024 NBA draft, is averaging 3.1 points, two rebounds and one assist per game for Cleveland.
