Tom Chambers, Terrell Suggs, Levi Jones (guard for Redskins now), and pretty much the entire ASU basketball teams in 1997 and 1998.
1. A midget literally joined us in a game. His midget wife watched us so we took it easy on him.
2. A guy with no forearms. Literally... He could shoot like no tomorrow. I'm not sure how he could catch the ball and shoot so accurately without hands. Mofo could even dribble.

I thought this thread was about "memorable" as in celebrities or NBA/former NBAers that you may have played in a pickup game before. I didn't think it was about "circus freak" memorable....i can, however, see how that might be memorable.
I don't have any experiences with 3-eyed midgets, but I once played a pickup game with Vinny Del Negro. That's all i got.
I don't know writing about Robin Lopez made me think of a guy with no hands.
The guy win no arms sounded like he could ball...i'm pretty impressed, i must admit.
Btw...what kind of venues are you playing in/at that you meet these kind of ballers?
I just play pickup at apartment complexes and a few gyms. The guy with no forearms was a sports complex in Round Rock tx. I was amazed he could shoot at all. You also couldn't really tell when he was going to shoot because the ball was held against his chest and would go directly to a shot not pulling up.
Makes sense. MJ was suspended the entire season.
I've played with a few pros and college players... Jimmy King of Fab 5 fame, Jerod Ward, Travis Conlan, Charles Woodson, David Bowens all at the University of Michigan. At New Orleans, also played with Gerald Honeycutt (Tulane), Hollis Price (Oklahoma), Alexi Giannoulias (Boston U), Brian Alkire (UW), Kerry Kittles, Randy Livingston. Couple celebrities I've played with include Dean Cain (pretty good baller), Silkk the Shocker (6'5 but succccckkkkkks), Brian McKnight, the actor who played Julius in "Remember the ans."
When I was younger, I used to be pretty good. Obviously, not as good as any of those college or pro guys, but I could hold my own on the court. When I did play with some of those guys, I wasn't just standing in the corner not touching the ball at all. Now, I'm in my 30s and when I play, I suck. It's sad.
i played a guy with one forearm missing. He was actually pretty good and could shoot the ball as well.
MJ,LBJ and KB. Bryant was the hardest because i cant block his fadeaways
oh yea and LBJ was hard too because he is huge like and fast like so its like
1) Sugar Shane Mosley
2) AC Green
3) Brent Barry
Used to work out at the Concord in San Antonio, and was routinely kicked off the floor by Spurs and UTSA players. I'm only 5-10/11, 175 lbs, so if I see Robert Horry is playing opposite, I want no part of it to spare myself being embarrassed and exposed. Devin Brown once joined a game I was a part of when he was still with the UTSA team.
Jason Maxiell, Greg Buckner, Gerald Green and Wallace Bryant
i call bull
Sam Dalembert, in Montreal, right after he got drafted by the Sixers
Anthony Randolph.
I win because I'm not full of and I have the picture to prove it.

I was about to say "where is Mono", he is dominating all of you. He played with Mr.Silky aka The Big Upside aka Take it Coast to Coast and Finish like you were in the gym by yourself, Anthony Randolph.
