If the Internet wasn’t made to act as a distribution point for hip-hop songs about Latvian basketball players, what was it created for?

You already know by now that New York Knicks rookie Kristaps Porzingis is taking the NBA by storm and you’ve probably heard the super-catchy “Kristaps Porzingis” by Latvian rap duo Transleiteris. It’s worth a listen, even if you don’t understand any words other than “Kristaps” and “Porzingis.”

ESPN noticed the song as well and have used it in an ad for their upcoming broadcast of a Knicks-Nets game.

Who says the Worldwide Leader doesn’t know what the people want? Because clearly the people want them some more Kristaps Porzingis, in any form.
