During one of the timeouts in the first half of the Friday night game, the Lakers hosted a shooting contest for a young fan named Cooper. The game host instructed Cooper to drop 10 points from the 3-point line within 30 seconds to win the game. Notably, the youngster grabbed the audience’s attention when he responded, “I am born ready” to the host’s inquiry. Moreover, Cooper didn’t attempt a single shot until the last two seconds. Instead, the 13-year-old looked around the arena and hyped the audience.

Cooper failed to live up to his own hype as he missed the only shot he took. After the shot, the crowd erupted with loud boos. Following the act, the clip surfaced on Twitter, garnering hilarious reactions from fans. One user said, “The epitome of every entitled, douchey, worthless Laker fan.”
