Quincy Pondexter scores Twitter date with Miss Tennessee Chandler Lawson
The Memphis Grizzlies may have embarrassed themselves by allowing the San Antonio Spurs to sweep them in the Western Conference Finals, but forward Quincy Pondexter is not going to let the team’s misfortunes stop him from enjoying his offseason. First order of business: a date with Miss Tennessee.
On Wednesday afternoon, Pondexter asked his Twitter followers who won Miss Tennessee this year. Chandler Larson, the stunning young lady who won the competition, replied to Pondexter’s tweet herself. A few tweets later and the 25-year-old had himself a date with a beauty queen.

Pondexter averaged 15.3 points per game against the Spurs after averaging only 6.4 during the regular season, so you can understand why he might have been feeling confident. Making a pass at Kate Upton on Twitter may not have worked for this college basketball player or this NHL player, but the end result doesn’t always have to be disappointing.
Remember Quincy, the first impression is the most important. Wear something nice.
