Boston Celtics guard Terry Rozier is known by many as âScary Terryâ for his ability to have offensive outbursts in big games, as evidenced by his spectacular run during the 2018 NBA playoffs.
But you know what else is scary about Rozier?
His ability to name popular television shows:
Terry Rozier definitely doesn't watch TVâŠ

It's clear that Rozier has never watched an episode of Friends in his life, but the best part about this whole sequence is him simply calling âThe Fresh Prince of Bel-Airâ ⊠âWill Smith.â
To his credit, he corrected himself, but that was hilarious.
On the basketball court this year, Rozier is not exactly been himself.
Clearly struggling to re-adjust to a bench role with the return of Kyrie Irving, Rozier is averaging just 8.8 points, 3.9 rebounds and 2.7 assists over 22.9 minutes per game this season while shooting 38.7 percent from the floor, 36.2 percent from 3-point range and 75.5 percent from the free-throw line.
Every single one of those numbers is down from last year, and when compared to his playoff run during which he registered 16.5 points, 5.7 assists, 5.3 boards and 1.3 steals a night, it's like we are not even watching the same player this season.
In Rozier's defense, it must be difficult going from having âScary Terryâ T-shirts printed and sold during the postseason to being an essential afterthought behind Irving.
The catch here is that Rozier will be a restricted free agent this coming summer, so he may be costing himself a nice sum of money with his current performance.
Of course, there is plenty of time for Rozier to turn things around, but he better start now if he wants to get paid. To his credit, he had a strong performance in a starting role against the Minnesota Timberwolves on Wednesday night, recording 16 points, five assists and five steals in 32 minutes.
