OKC Thunder rookies Jaylin Williams, Jalen Williams recreate Spider-Man meme to perfection
The 2022 NBA Draft has come and gone but memes last forever.
At the NBA Draft over the weekend, the Oklahoma City Thunder drafted Jalen Williams No. 12 overall out of Santa Clara. Then, just 22 spots later, the Thunder drafted Jaylin Williams from Arkansas at No. 34, prompting a deluge of jokes from Twitter about the similarity of their names.
Quite a hilarious coincidence, right? Sure, it might be hell on the announcers that have to differentiate the two for the fans in the future, but the two seem to be forming a fast friendship after they met previously at May’s NBA Draft combine.
And now, that friendship has evolved into memes, as Jalen Williams and Jaylin Williams recreated the iconic Spider-Man meme as a token of their shared namesake.
You’ve gotta love it! Talk about new teammate camaraderie coming out in full force here. I, for one, cannot wait to see what Jalen Williams and Jaylin Williams can do for the Thunder in the years to come.
