NBA players as Marvel characters!


Hello! Today, I as Kyrie11BKN, I am bringing you a fun post! I have selected 22 Marvel characters (for the 2022 season) and finding which NBA player fits them. I got this idea when I rewatched a plethora of Marvel movies for the past few weeks and I thought it would be cool. You may not really care but I'd like if you could flame or upvote this as it took me quite a while to gather everything together. LMK if you disagree with any or if I forgot any Marvel characters. Finally, all players are current. Without further ado, here it is:

  1. Iron Man: Lebron James

This only makes sense. An iconic quote by Iron Man is: Genius, billionaire, playboy and philanthropist. It exactly describes both of them (except for the playboy since IDK what it means). Lebron is a genius. He finds loopholes, knows how to do nothing but produce the most and is genuinely a genius. He's also the face of the league like Iron Man is the face of Marvel. He could qualify for Captain America, as being old but still very useful, but he's a billionaire like Iron Man and whilst he's aging, he's still good. Also, Lebron is a very well known philanthropist for what he does in many communities.

  1. Spiderman: Donovan Mitchell

Yup, I'm lazy. But why not? It's his entire brand and it fits well. A high-flying newcomer that's instantly become a fan favourite and is really good off the rip. Mitchell used to be 2nd or 3rd in an offense led by (tries to not throw up) Joe Ingles and Rudy Gobert. Similar to Spider-Man as he was behind guys like Iron Man and Vision. They now lead both of their teams and are part of the new era of their time.

  1. Ant-Man: Russell Westbrook

OK, this will need some explanation. Usually this spot is given to IT4 but Russ fits this perfectly. Russ plays below and above his height at different times and he really does both. Ant-Man is the exact same description as he can shrink and use his craftiness to his advantage and can be very tall to dominate over others. Russ gets stats both that big men and guards collect which is why I chose him for this exact spot.

  1. Hulk: Giannis Antetokounmpo

"Giannis SMASH!" OK, just a joke lol. But, it's perfect.

  1. Captain America:

  2. Black Widow:

  3. Hawkeye:

  4. Scarlet Witch:

  5. Black Panther:

  6. Vision:

  7. Captain Marvel:

  8. Falcon:

  9. War Machine:

  10. Fantastic 4:

  11. Guardians of the Galaxy:

  12. Doctor Strange:

  13. Deadpool:

  14. Thanos:

  15. Shang-Chi:

  16. Winter Soldier:

  17. Loki:

  18. Thor:
