Kim Kardashian recently took to her Instagram stories to share clips of Saint West's latest basketball game. The first two clips featured him confidently sinking shots from well beyond the 3-point line. However, the real excitement unfolded in the third video. As Saint's teammate passed him the ball, he faced a bunch of defenders. Yet, fueled by the cheers of his teammates, Saint dribbled down the court, effortlessly maneuvering past his opponents.
He pulled off an Allen Iverson-esque crossover maneuver before confidently launching a shot from beyond the arc. And the ball effortlessly found its way through the net as well. But it was Saint's celebration of his winning shot that stole the show. "My baby got the game winning shot at the buzzer," The Kardashians star proudly declared in the video she uploaded. It has been quite some time since a member of their clan left a mark in sports, and it appears that Saint might just be the one to break the norm with his talent.
