Ryan Dunn plays better defense than that.
Amazon Prime posted a promo for its NBA coverage for the upcoming 2026-27 season that featured six NBA players and a content creator wearing a purple Phoenix Suns No. 0 replica jersey with Dunn's name on the back.
Dunn wears No. 0 for the Suns as he's entering his third NBA season.
Phoenix recently picked up his fourth-year option.
The content creator talked about being on the set for hours, doing sprints, but made note that he was on in the promo for a few seconds. He can be seen guarding Detroit Pistons guard Cade Cunningham, Philadelphia 76ers guard Tyrese Maxey, and in the background of a snippet or two.
Why are they all just frying Ryan Dunn?? 😭😭 https://t.co/6rjnxwVJIw

New York Knicks guard Jalen Brunson,
Boston Celtics forward Jayson Tatum, Minnesota Timberwolves guard LaMelo Ball, Orlando Magic forward Paolo Banchero, Maxey and Cunningham are in the promo with the actor, who posted a video on his growmoretreesplz TikTok account.
"What the word TikTok. Spend the day in a life with me. I'm shooting an NBA Amazon Prime Video commercial that's going to run around 7," the post said.
The content creator filmed himself with the jersey and in a series of poses and flexes in the uniform.
"After breakfast, we got our little fits. I was a double for Ryan Dunn. So I had a little Phoenix jersey. Going crazy. Getting a little sleeve."
Dunn has worn sleeves in the game as well as wristbands.

The content creator filmed the food spread and a catering service. The video continues with him saying he was able to "keep all the gear," and he walked out with a free pair of Kobe Bryant sneakers.
The content creator then shows video of the set with a shot of the players. Prime's NBA team of Taylor Rooks and former NBA players Blake Griffin and Udonis Haslem are in the 30-second promo.
It looks like there's also someone wearing an Oklahoma City Thunder uniform, who Brunson shoots over. It's hard to see the full number, but it's a five, and the actor is wearing a headband and a sleeve on his arm.
The Suns have one game scheduled on Amazon Prime — April 2 against the Denver Nuggets in Phoenix.
