Kevin Hart is 5’4” and has played zero meaningful, official NBA games. The actor, producer and standup comedian is the four-time MVP of the NBA’s celebrity game during All-Star weekend. Kyle Lowry is the all-star, starting point guard for the NBA’s Toronto Raptors. A video clip slowly working its way through Twitter and Vine shows a rare turn of the tables, as the diminutive Hart thoroughly stuffs Lowry’s layup attempt during a pickup game between the two.

The clip is actually from 2012 during an offseason scrimmage session at Impact Basketball in Los Angeles, California. It resurfaced Sunday and the hashtag #KevinHartvsKyleLowry began trending shortly thereafter.

It should be noted the six-second clip is part of a longer montage where Lowry repeatedly scored over and stole the ball from Hart with relative ease. That didn’t stop Hart from giving the obligatory reaction to a good block.

“Get that s–t outta here!” he yelled to an assembled crowd.
