la culebrita
A made-up name for a basketball player who’s so tiny, he could fit in a shoe. He used to be with the Knicks, but now he’s with the Celtics, and he’s still mad about it.
“La culebrita is the size of a snack, but he plays like he’s the main dish.”
“I saw la culebrita on the court, and I said, ‘That’s not a player, that’s a punchline.’”
“La culebrita is like a shrimp who thinks he’s a whale.”
