Britney Spears Talks Up Her Own Basketball Skills Following Victor Wembanyama's Security Slap

Singer Britney Spears is letting her own basketball skills be known after she was slapped by a security guard following San Antonio Spurs player Victor Wembanyama last week.

The incident happened outside the Catch restaurant at the ARIA Hotel in Las Vegas. As security footage shows, Britney went to ask the NBA star for a photo and tapped him on the shoulder. His security guard "backhanded" her, but will face no criminal charges for the incident. The 41-year-old pop star went on to say that she is still a "huge fan" of the athlete, even if her fans trolled his disappointing NBA debut on Friday night.

On Monday afternoon, the "Hold Me Closer" singer took to Instagram to share a video of a few children playing basketball, which she credited to @courtsidefilms in the caption. Despite being a huge fan of the NBA star, Britney made it clear that she can hold her own on the court.

In the caption, she explained that she posts a lot of dancing videos on her Instagram page, but she was a point guard when she played in school. "Funny people see me dancing a lot 💃🏼 … IN SCHOOL I didn’t dance or cheerlead … I was a point guard ⛹🏼‍♀️ !!!" she wrote.

"I called all the plays and I was fast as h*ll cause I was like a mouse 🐭 … I couldn’t shoot as well as I handled the ball 🏀!!!" she went on to say. "The rush of the game THE UNKNOWN … no set ups … the tricks … the FAKES … the ball … baby can f*cking play !!!"

Although comments on her Instagram post were disabled, fans know how well she can play! She handled her own on "The Ellen DeGeneres Show" in the early 2000s in a clip that has gone viral after Wembanyama's disappointing start in the NBA.

Many Britney fans took to Twitter to troll the 19-year-old French athlete following his disappointing start in the NBA on Friday night. One fan tweeted a video of the pop star playing basketball during an 2000s appearance on “The Ellen DeGeneres Show.” In the caption, the fan wrote, "Britney scoring in heels take notes victor wembanyama."

However, it seems not everyone agrees as to who would win in a one-on-one match-up. One tweet from a Britney fan account read, "Retweet if you think Britney Spears could beat Victor Wembanyama in 1:1." The fan tweeted, "Wemby would slap her in a 1v1 stop playing."

Other fans felt that Victor had "voodoo" placed on him for not apologizing to the pop star following the security guard slap. One fan tweeted, "Victor Wembanyama the walking twig got smacked and his reaction’s priceless. That Britney voodoo is real."

Although he was the number-one overall pick in the NBA, he might have been a little shaken by all of the Britney fans coming for him on social media on Friday. On Twitter, Tomer Azarly shared a video of the San Antonio Spurs player saying that he wanted to focus on his basketball career and stay out of the media spotlight for a while.

“In the past month, I think basketball wasn't even 50% of my schedule. I can't stand it," he said in the video. "I know it's a special moment in my life, but I'm glad it's over ... I just wanna hoop."
