Former Syracuse star Dion Waiters showed off a little bit of his playful personality on Friday, giving a ridiculous reason for his better-than-usual conditioning this NBA season.
Waiters, whose form happened to correspond with a career-best year, attributed his weight loss to wrestling alligators, something he was eager to get back to this offseason. But don't worry, with the potential to become a free agent this offseason and land a lucrative contract, Waiters doesn't seem to be taking too many chances in his Instagram video.
The video, which has been watched more than 30,000 times, includes Waiters' inflatable friend attempting a death roll on him and Waiters threatening to make like "Stone Cold" Steve Austin.
