Jhong Hilario is a Showtime host and a dancer. Yet, although his stunt is one week old, it has recently been picked up by several outlets and will soon be featured on ESPN. YouTubers have already watched it half a million times.

Frequency detailed that Hilario's free throw shoot was part of a game included in the Hero Foundation Basketball tournament.
