The Houston Rockets mascot is one sneaky prankster as he quietly stands still while all the players go inside the court for practice, and scares the hell out of them when they come back out. The reactions he gets are purely epic.

Seeing professional basketball players scared by the mascot is absolutely hilarious, not only because of their reactions but also because you wouldn't expect those kind of results from well-built, strong and intimidating men.

The video posted by Jeremy How has more than one and a half million views, gathered in just a few days.

One reaction is absolutely priceless as one of the players passing by the mascot and texting on his phone actually throws the device and jumps a few feet high from the scare. The opposite happens with the very unimpressed player that doesn't even hinge when the mascot tries to scare him.

The players should keep an eye out for their mascot because he is allegedly planning on actually making a habit for scaring people.
