A courtside billboard ate Kelly Olynyk’s foot

Olynyk was literally a walking advertisement for a few seconds.

I think we’re all feeling pretty squeamish these days about basketball players crashing into objects beyond the baseline, but I’m happy to report the following collision was 100 percent funny and not at all injurious:

That’s Kelly Olynyk of the Celtics and, currently, the Canadian national team crashing into a floor billboard during an exhibition game in Italy against Serbia. He walked away just fine, but the billboard wasn’t done with him.
