Video: NBA star Timofey Mozgov has less charisma than a Barbary macaque

Mozgov for president

Backwards jersey and all, Timofey Mozgov is a natural showman.

The Cleveland Cavaliers center was a revelation in a recent advert for a local business in the city.

Watch as he effortlessly delivers the artfully written words that would make the sanest person on the globe remortgage their house and spend it all on a plane ticket so they can visit this exquisite looking establishment.

Mozgov puts in an Oscar-worthy performance, and he’ll find solace knowing that if the whole basketball thing doesn’t work out, he can always fall back on a career in acting.

I, for one, can’t wait to see blockbuster after blockbuster starring the towering Russian once he finally decides to hang up his high-tops. I’m sure the movie-going masses feel exactly the same way.
