Good news, everyone: Hawks PG Jeff Teague is a wine glass now
You’ve spent this whole holiday season giving everyone else gifts; why not treat yourself to the present everyone really wants? I’m talking, of course, about a wine glass made in the image and likeness of Atlanta Hawks point guard Jeff Teague:

Take a moment to admire this @Teague0-themed wine glass. And yes, you can drink from it! (via @InkInktricate) pic.twitter.com/0eW8LAG4yw

This exquisite, and exquisitely mustachioed, vessel comes to us courtesy of Atlanta-based artist Nichole Epps of Inktricate Art. The faux foam fingers, emblazoned with the phrase “TEAGUE TIME,” glow in the dark. It is a fully functional glass out of which you can drink the liquid of your choosing. And it is available for your bid — yes, yours! — on eBay right flippin’ now. The estimated delivery window — between Jan. 7 and Jan. 11 — means you won’t be able to imbibe (responsibly!) by taking the top off Teague’s dome on some Hannibal during your New Year’s Eve party, but an item this choice is worth that wait and minor inconvenience.
Now, you might be wary about bidding because, well, you wonder whether people will think you’re weird for drinking out of a glass that looks like a 27-year-old NBA All-Star. I hear that. Really, I do. When you really think about it, though, you’ll come to a pretty interesting question: doesn’t Jeff Teague seem like the kind of guy that, if he had the opportunity, would be nice enough to bid on a wine glass made to look like you? You’re right. He does. Fire up the PayPal, gang. It’s time to support basketball art that can help you get tipsy!
Hat-tip to the lovely and talented Seth Rosenthal of SB Nation.
