Cowboys' Micah Parsons Shades Lou Williams in NBA, NFL Debate: 'Ain't Hard to Dunk'

You might think it's hard to dunk.

Micah Parsons does not.

The Dallas Cowboys star took to social media and said, "It ain't hard to dunk or make a lay up" in response to a video from former NBA player Lou Williams discussing whether it would be easier for NBA players to go into the NFL or NFL players to go into the NBA.

"I think everybody should respect everybody's craft," Williams said. "I don't think there's 30 NBA players that can play in the NFL. I don't think there's 30 NFL players that can play in the NBA."

Yet Williams had an issue with people saying NBA players are soft, adding that "basketball is way more contact than we get credit for."

It should be noted that Parsons can play some basketball, as he was the MVP of the 2024 NBA All-Star Celebrity Game. But playing in that is just a bit different than trying to score against NBA defenders.

The NBA and NFL debate largely started when Austin Rivers went on the Pat McAfee Show and said he thinks there are 30 NBA players who could currently play in the NFL:

"Where the best athletes in the world are, that's us," Rivers said. "I could take 30 players right now in the NBA and throw them in the NFL. You cannot take 30 NFL players and put them in the NBA."

It's pretty clear where Parsons stands on that debate.
