It is one of the greatest time-killers in the history of the world: name two actors/actresses, and try to see how they’re connected. But the “Six Degrees of Kevin Bacon” was mostly just meant for movies. Now that LeBron James has made his movie debut in Trainwreck, there’s a new “Six Degrees” game with an added dimension: NBA players.
The Wall Street Journal has created a nifty web toy called the “Six Degrees of LeBron James.” Type in an NBA player on one side, and an actor or actress on the other, and it will detail how the two are connected through LeBron. You can try mainstream people or incredibly obscure ones – the fun is in trying to stump the program.
