Rob Gronkowski spent time shooting hoops and working on his fundamentals with Providence College’s men’s basketball coach, Kim English, on Saturday.
The former Patriots tight end was seen dunking, taking pull-up jumpers, and showing off his handle. The Friars posted highlights of the workout, and afterward, English joked about Gronkowski’s athletic eligibility.
“Only played three seasons at Arizona?” English said on X.
Gronkowski played basketball in high school as well as baseball before ultimately committing to Arizona for football. His high school basketball coach shared a now-infamous story of the time Gronkowski intentionally missed a free throw to keep his team’s score at 69 points.
