Darius Bazley beats the buzzer, issues PSA to beat coronavirus in Instagram video

Darius Bazley may be stuck inside his house, but he knows he’s doing just what the doctors ordered.

The Oklahoma City Thunder power forward posted a fun little video to Instagram in which he hit a fake game-winner on a tiny door net inside his house and then gave an interview to a “reporter” who asked how he prepared for such a big moment before the game.

“I’ve just been listening to the officials man … I’ve just been staying inside, staying quarantined,” Bazley said. “I’ve been been washing my hands every 10 seconds. You know, I need to wash my hands right now.”

Let’s run through the highlight footage:

Before the shot, Bazley called for an iso — just like we all should be doing at home!

He probably got too close to the interviewer, but he quickly went to wash his hands … though in general, once every 10 seconds might be a tad excessive.

Bazley even showed that washing your hands doesn’t even have to interrupt an activity. He continued on with the interview through it, only getting interrupted when the water was too hot, which was either a funny moment or really strong acting.

He summarized it in his Instagram caption:

“I beat the clock, now let’s all beat COV-19 by staying inside.”
