Magic of Orlando guard Anthony Black And Toronto Raptors‘ Gradey Cockboth rookies, took part in the first ever NSFW jersey swap that the NBA saw and captured the moment for all on social media to enjoy.
Dick, 20, appears to have been the one who came up with the idea after the Raptors’ loss to the Magic on Sunday at the Kia Center in Orlando. Black, 20, looked hesitant at first, but eventually gave in to the pressure.

They even positioned themselves so that “Black” preceded “Dick” to complete the NSFW jersey swap, which is likely a first in league history.
Dick and Black both had smirks on their faces as the photographer took a picture of them holding each other’s jerseys.
Will Gradey Dick and Anthony Black get into trouble?
Although the rookies clearly knew what they were doing, it’s not their fault that a NSFW phrase can be created while standing side by side, so the NBA probably won’t fine them.
Dick is constantly made fun of by his last name and was even introduced as “Mr. Big Big Energy” by the Raptors announcer on one occasion.
The NBA must deal with constant offenders such as Green Draymond And Jacques Morantso it’s unlikely that Black or Dick will face repercussions for their childish prank.
