A kid probably could never remember his or her first birthday party, but if any kid does, it’ll be Damian Lillard Jr. Check out the odd couple of Serge Ibaka and Kawhi Leonard cooking together and more in today’s top NBA social media posts.
The Trail Blazers’ Damian Lillard threw a Mickey Mouse-themed first birthday party for his son, and they … went … all … out. Balloon arches, custom cookies and lots of cuteness. Check it out.
Serge Ibaka has a cooking show? And he got Kawhi Leonard to come on? Any time the reticent but interesting Toronto Raptors star does something, it’s sure to be worth your time.
