Boban Marjanovic mercilessly blocked these kid's shots at a Mavericks basketball camp and, honestly, it's for the best

When you’re a kid, you think the world is your oyster. And that’s a good thing, you know? Confidence is important in life. You need that.

But sometimes? You need to be taught valuable lessons. Lessons that will lead you down the right paths in life and allow you to make the best decisions for yourself.

Sometimes the best way to teach those lessons is by blocking a kid’s shot halfway across a gym.

What lesson is that? Truthfully, I have no idea. But there’s no better teacher for this one than Boban Marjanovic.

Sure, he’s an adorable 7’3 center sometimes who does Soul Cycle classes and sends tweets to his best friends when he misses them. This was not one of those times, folks. This was closer to the John Wick Boban than anything else.

The Mavericks had Boban out there snatch blocking shots left and right. Absolutely zero effort involved. Just dashing these kids’ hopes one hand at a time.

This was absolutely incredible. And, you know what? Good for him. Anybody can get it when you step on that court — man, woman, child, dog, goldfish. It don’t matter. You getting locked up if you pick up that ball.

Maybe that’s the lesson there? Anybody can get it. Yeah, I like that. Let’s go with that. This way I don’t have to feel as bad when I’m dunking on 6-year-olds like LeBron James.

Oh, wait. Did I say that out loud? Whoops. Anyway, fans thought this was hilarious.
