As former Cleveland Cavaliers point guard Delonte West once told J.J. Hickson: "I don't care if you have to fly. Planes, trains and automobiles. You better have my donuts."
On Sunday, Cavs point guard Collin Sexton learned that lesson the hard way.
In what's been a long-standing tradition for rookies around the NBA, Sexton has been tasked with providing his teammates with donuts. But prior to the Cavs' Sunday matinee matchup against the Philadelphia 76ers, the 19-year-old fell short of his expectations, leading to an unlikely punishment from center Tristan Thompson.
In a video posted to his Instagram story, Thompson revealed that he had filled Sexton's Lexus -- a $50,000 car -- with 12 bags of popcorn as retaliation for the Alabama product falling short of feeding the entire team.
Sexton's offense? According to a note left on his car, he only provided 12 donuts instead of the standard 24 -- hence the 12 bags of popcorn that occupied his car.
"There are 12 popcorn bags in your vehicle which represent the number of doughnuts you have failed to provide on game days," the sign read. "We require 2 dozen doughnuts on game days, not a dozen."
Over the video posted to his Instagram, Thompson -- now in his eighth year in the NBA -- can be heard saying "That boy going to find out today. Bring enough donuts, or this is what happens. Respect will be had! Duties will be done!"
Unfortunately for the Cavs, Sexton's rough day didn't stop there. In addition to scoring just 12 points on 6-of-13 shooting in Cleveland's loss to the Sixers, the former No. 8 overall pick's behavior on the bench resulted in an errant pass thrown by veteran center Channing Frye.
