Uncle Drew puts on a basketball clinic

While Kyrie Irving appears to have a long NBA career ahead of him, don't be surprised to see him working in Hollywood one day.

The Cleveland Cavaliers star and NBA Rookie of the Year wrote, directed and starred in "Uncle Drew", a five-minute promotional short for Pepsi MAX.

Irving goes into full costume, dressing up as an old man watching his "nephew" Kevin play street ball at Clark's Pond Courts in Bloomfield, N.J.

After a player goes down to injury, Kevin suggests that Uncle Drew should come into the game.

After a couple of airballs to throw everybody off, Irving takes over with incredible crossover moves and some long-range 3-pointers, capped off with a slam dunk that left the crowd scratching their heads.

"They don't practice the fundamentals anymore," Uncle Drew says in his best old man voice.

The film is a clever way for the soft drink company to promote its tagline for Pepsi Max: "A zero calorie cola in disguise".

At the end of the video, viewers go behind the scenes to watch the transformation from the him 20-year-old point guard to the overweight, still thinks he can hang with the kids on the court, "Uncle Drew".

In just over a week, the video has been seen over five million times on YouTube.
