New York Giants wide receiver Odell Beckham Jr. has established himself as one of the biggest stars in the NFL through his first four years in the league. He has shown to be an athletically gifted player that has made tremendous plays on the football field behind that unique ability.
Beckham Jr. also demonstrated that he has some skills in other sports after hitting a home run in the cage prior to the Tampa Bay Rays taking on the Los Angeles Angels last month. However, this doesn't translate to all sports as there is a video that has surfaced of him taking a cringe-worthy jump shot that he airballs.

The shooting form alone is quite out of sorts that combined with missing the hope entirely doesn't give off a good impression of how he will fare on the basketball court. That said, it's not something that will damage his athletic reputation as he is one of the most uniquely talented players that the NFL that he is currently on pace to put together a Hall of Fame-worthy career before it's all said and done.
More importantly, the only thing that matters at this point in time is his health as he's recovering from a broken ankle that he suffered last year. He hasn't been physically hindered in any way this offseason that should bode well for what's to come this upcoming season for what could be a major bounce-back year.
The Giants are counting on him to return to being that dominant factor in the passing game that will be a big part in helping push the franchise back into contention for the playoffs and possibly further than that.
If there is anything to take away from this video is that basketball isn't one of the sports in which Beckham Jr. shines.
