Thursday's NBA Finals rematch between the Boston Celtics and Golden State Warriors was thrilling in its own right. But the TD Garden Jumbotron also provided some grade-A entertainment.

Alas, the doppelgangers never shared a locker room; Hayward left the Celtics for the Charlotte Hornets in November 2020, while Hauser joined Boston in 2021.
2. Blake Griffin mistaken for Kris Humphries
This is a lot more funny if you keep up with your Kardashians; Humphries was briefly married to Kim Kardashian in 2011 (for 72 days, to be exact), while Griffin briefly dated Kim's half-sister, Kendall Jenner, from 2017 to 2018.
Griffin earns bonus points for his delivery: "Kris Humphries back in his ... prime."
3. Luke Kornet mistaken for Joe Flacco
Wow. We can totally see this one. If Kornet wasn't eight inches taller than the New York Jets quarterback, we'd have him infiltrate a Jets practice and bring a few state secrets back to New England.
Honorable mention goes to Grant Williams, who claimed he was mistaken for Jayson Tatum and Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson -- "because of the muscles."
We're sure he'll hear about that one in the locker room.
