It’s been a while since we’ve heard from our good friend Amar’e Stoudemire. But have no fear, he’s still around and ready to make his laugh.

The six-time NBA All-Star is currently playing professional basketball in Israel. After disagreeing with a call recently, Stoudemire made the bold and awesome decision to try and hand his glasses to an official:

Stoudemire’s glasses became a part of his getup during the latter part of his NBA career. It’s nice to see those made the trip with him to Israel and can now be used to taunt referees.

It’s unclear exactly what call set Stoudemire off, but this is a fantastic joke. What does Stoudemire have to lose? He made a boatload of money in the NBA, and foreign leagues probably are hard pressed to kick out big names such as Stoudemire. It’s a hilarious joke and one that should be celebrated for years to come.
