I think that Johnny Manziel just set a new record before playing a professional football game. Manziel was drafted by his third professional team this offseason, this time by the Harlem Globetrotters. Okay, so maybe the Globetrotters aren’t in a major professional league, but this is still ridiculous. Landon Donovan was also drafted by the Globetrotters, joining Johnny Globetrotter as a current pro athlete who now has another option.
âJohnny Manziel is a fantastic athlete that knows how to be entertaining. âJohnny Basketballâ has a nice ring to it, doesnât it?ââ âSweet Louâ Dunbar, Globetrottersâ director of player personnel, says in a press release.
âWe like to think outside the box with our draft, so we look at all different kinds of athletes that could have the qualities of a Harlem Globetrotter,â says Dunbar.
