This is also not the first time that Wahlberg flaunted his child's skills in basketball and had shared a similar video on May 3, 2019. In the previous video, a woman’s voice can be heard talking to Brendan while he plays the game, saying, “You know what is hard? Making a half-court shot. Try it! Throw one!”. Then Brenden walks up to the half-court line and takes the shot with only one hand followed by the woman's cheer and Brenden being stunned by his own shot and said, “that was just a half-court shot”.
