Peyton Manning had the weirdest sideline look after Lakers-Nuggets, and fans had jokes
Former NFL quarterback Peyton Manning was just one of the many NBA fans who turned out for Thursday night’s Lakers-Nuggets Game 2 in Denver.
As the game ended, ESPN’s camera panned from LeBron James walking off the court to Manning, who looked a bit flustered before engaging in a strangely choreographed round of clapping session on the sideline.
Nobody really knows what exactly was going through Manning’s head during this moment; it really well may have been nothing.
However, this is Peyton Manning we’re talking about, and his reaction here to whatever is going on inside his noggin is just too good to ignore.

We can guess that Manning is probably happy about the game’s result since he played in Denver for the Broncos (unless he had some money on the Lakers winning).
However, maybe he’s a big James fan and he wanted to see one of the best-ever basketball players win the game? We don’t know.
What we do know is the internet did what it always does and came up with some hilarious thoughts about this Manning moment.
