VIDEO: Kevin Garnett and Mike Francesa Appear in Wild Trailer for Adam Sandler Movie 'Uncut Gems'
By Jerry Trotta
Speaking in reference to Kevin Garnett's emphatic howl after the Boston Celtics won the NBA Title in 2011: anything is possible. Not in this lifetime did we expect to mention the likes of KG, actor Adam Sandler, and New York radio legend Mike Francesa in the same sentence, but here we are. Garnett and Francesa are set to appear in Sandler's upcoming film, "Uncut Gems," which tells the story of a larger-than-life jeweler obsessed with sports gambling.

Garnett will cameo in a few scenes as himself, while Francesa is set to play a character named Anthony, Sandler's bookie.
The plot isn't necessarily appealing, but the fact it includes Sandler, a future basketball Hall of Famer, and one of the most captivating radio personalities in sports history, that might be enough to convince us to go see it in theaters.
Someone has to ask Francesa about this on his radio show this week.
