Knicks guard Iman Shumpert, who has dabbled as a rapper, has another job title to add to his resume: prankster.
In a video that was released on Wednesday, Shumpert appears as a bodyguard that greets applicants for a job as a “temporary assistant to a high profile personality,” as part of a promotion for “The November Man,” which was released in theaters on Wednesday.
Once the applicants enter a room, they are told that they will be working for Peter Devereaux, who is the main character in the movie and is played by Pierce Brosnan.
One of Shumpert’s “assistants” then proceeds to scare the applicants, smashing their cell phones and telling them they will be replaced.
The applicants then begin to get nervous, with one being on the verge of tears, before Shumpert’s identity is revealed.
The Knicks should hope that Shumpert’s performance this coming season is as good as his pranking.
