There is no question that Chicago Bulls big man Robin Lopez is one funny dude. He proved his awesome sense of humor yet again earlier this season, as the 7-foot center starred in another side-splitting parody.
The Bulls' official Twitter page shared a rather lengthy video starring Lopez as the Mad Hatter of âAlice in Wonderlandâ to commemorate Sunday's Oscars:

To be fair to Lopez, he was absolutely in character throughout the entire sequence. He definitely stood out among all the âactorsâ in the short film, and this was an exhibition of the 30-year-old's commendable acting chops.
This is not the first time Lopez has featured in a parody, as he previously starred in the Bulls' version of the live-action adaptation of âBeauty and the Beastâ as the film's main villain, Gaston. He also has done a parody of âThe Bachelor.âÂ
Lopez appears to have a promising future in the field of acting once he decides to finally call it a basketball career.
At the moment, though, the 11-year veteran is still enjoying life in the NBA. He is now in his third season with the Bulls, and he is currently averaging 7.6 points (on 56.1 percent shooting) and 3.2 rebounds in 18.2 minutes per game of action.
Lopez's numbers are definitely not of the eye-popping category, but he has been playing his best basketball of the season of late. The veteran big man is averaging 15.6 points and 4.6 rebounds while shooting 67.5 percent from the field in February, and it looks like the Bulls have zero plans of buying him out.
Clearly, Chicago wants him for his production both on and off the court.
