WNBA All-Star Kelsey Plum Made Lofty Claim That She's The GOAT When It Comes To Napping
The WNBA All-Star Game is happening in Phoenix this weekend which means it's the perfect time for some softball, fluffy orange-carpet interviews. Las Vegas Aces star Kelsey Plum will be on the WNBA All-Star team when it takes on the US National Team, and before the game got started she got in on some of these fluff, nonsense interviews.
ESPN set up shop and decided to ask players what their hidden talent is.
I don't know why ESPN decided to ask the type of questions that people ask during ice-breaker activities on syllabus day. Also, 99.99 percent of the time, hidden talents are lame. If it was a good talent, you wouldn't be hiding it.
Nonetheless, they asked, and some WNBA All-Stars answered. A couple said juggling while some others said that their talent was speaking a little Spanish, which, again, is a dull hidden talent.
Being fluent in Klingon is a hidden talent (a nerdy one, but still). Knowing a little bit of one of the most widely spoken languages on Earth is not.
But it was Plum's answer that caught my attention because she didn't just claim that her talent was a hidden one, she claimed to be the best in the world at it.
That talent? Napping.
"I'm really good at napping. Like anywhere, everywhere, any time of day. I can nap with the best of them," Plum explained. "Potentially the greatest of all time."
Hang on, hang on… of all-time, you say? There have been some stellar nappers throughout history from Aristotle to Da Vinci to our current president (although, I don't know if it's considered napping if it's unplanned.
So, we're gonna need some more info before we crown a GOAT.

I agree; napping
