Miles Bridges cleared the record regarding a funny post about his “mom” that went going viral.
Bridges was one of the participants in the AT&T Slam Dunk contest during the All-Star Game festivities on Saturday night in Charlotte. Though he recorded a 50 on his second dunk, his first attempt was a disaster.
The Hornets rookie missed all four of his attempts, leading to this funny cutaway from TNT showing a woman who was not impressed:

Folks on social media quickly picked up on the great reaction that summed up the dunk attempt, with folks figuring that was Bridges’ mother.
After he was done competing, Bridges hopped on Twitter to set things straight.
that’s not my mom!!! https://t.co/dhtGuEx0O0

At least he was able to laugh along with the funny story.
Not making a dunk in the dunk contest is like going 0-fer in the Home Run Derby. It’s an embarrassment you can’t ever live down.
