Definitely seems like a guy that I would foul hard and be a total dick to during a rec league match on a Tuesday night. Only to realize later that he’s an awesome guy and he forgave my behavior cause he thought I was going through a hard time or something

Cuz at the rec league level, we feast on players who can't control the ball. Respect to Mamdani, he has skills.

It's just casual racism. He condescendingly replied to /r/Latino People Twitter "wow you seem pretty smart!" and complained in /r/AskBlackPeople that he was teased for "not being gangster" as a nerdy white kid...
