Steven Adams might be a TV star.
It started with a seemingly innocent tweet from friend Enes Kanter. But, no one (especially Steven Adams) expected the petition that followed.
Oops!! Somebody got an accident hahaha 😂😂

Among comparisons to a young Antonio Banderas, Fabio, Scott Stapp of the band Creed, and tennis star Roger Federer, fans couldn’t help but notice the resemblance to a notable character from the Game of Thrones.
According to fans, Adams could be the twin of Khal Drogo. If you’re unfamiliar with the show, just know that’s a beast of a character played by Jason Momoa (Aquaman). In fact, the resemblance is so striking that fan Will Copeland took it upon himself to create a change.org petition to earn Adams a cameo on the show.
The petition ultimately closed with more than 1,700 supporters, but no guarantee of a cameo appearance by the Thunder big man.
When asked what he think of the claim, Adams told reporters:
"“I haven’t actually seen it but everyone says I look like old mate on there.”"
