— NBA UK (@NBAUK) March 31, 2015 Gareth Bale is better at half-court shots than NBA players are at shooting threes
He’s good at soccer. He’s good at basketball. IT’S NOT FAIR.


Gareth Bale is a really good soccer player. Apparently, he's not too bad at basketball either. Well, at half-court shots at least. Hitting three out of five shots is impressive. You can try to say it's not, but you'd be wrong.
He’s also WAY better at the half court challenge than Chelsea players. However, since we didn’t see Bale working in the paint, it’s tough to compare him to Wayne Rooney’s work.
Here's a better comparison. He basically matched Stephen Curry in half-court shooting.
