Tim Duncan interrupted on-court Spurs-Raptors pregame show to rip off Sean Elliott's glasses

Tim Duncan rarely laughs or changes his facial expression on the court (unless an opposing rookie does something stupid). He’s usually extremely serious. But he joked around a bit before the Spurs beat the Raptors on Saturday night. Although, you never see him crack a smile.

His former teammate, Sean Elliott, was the target. Duncan took off Elliott’s glasses, then he ripped the mic cover off and placed it on Elliott’s head. Was it a late April Fools’ Day joke? Maybe, but it’s not like this hasn’t happened before.

The two won a title together in 1999. There’s a special bond there.
