You may have expected New Zealand's NBA star Steven Adams to watch the opening game of the NBA season, whether it be to scope out opposition and analyse their players and tactics ahead of Oklahoma City Thunder's fixtures against them, or even just for the entertainment and enjoyment of witnessing a new season of NBA returning to television screens around the world.
Adams, however, had other plans. When asked whether he watched yesterday's star-studded match between the San Antonio Spurs and the Golden State Warriors, New Zealand's only NBA player stated he didn't, instead preferring to watch Japanese anime show One Piece.
"I was watching cartoons, man," laughed Adams.
"Some Japanese anime, I don't know if you watch that, it's just my stuff. [I was watching] One Piece. It's about pirates and that. One Punch Man as well, another classic."
