Ex-NBA tough guy Matt Barnes met his match this week … coming face-to-face with a pesky opossum that entered his home — and the video of the standoff is riveting.
The 44-year-old hooper documented the whole thing on his Instagram page … showing his elaborate plan to get the creature out of his kitchen.
Barnes — who’s in the process of moving — had a bunch of boxes set up in hopes of leading the opossum toward the door.
The guy even tried throwing various fruits at it … but the intruder refused to budge.
Barnes then grabbed a golf club … with the intent to “put a pitching wedge up his ass.”
The 6’7″ champ did everything he could to keep a distance … hopping around on the countertops and spraying the rodent with water, which only made it more of a challenge as it scurried further into the home.
At one point, MB even pondered lighting a joint to get the critter high … but elected against it.
Eventually, Barnes’ nemesis decided it was time to go back outside … bolting for the door and off the property.
“I’ll fight anybody, but I don’t f*** with animals,” Barnes said. “That’s for g**damn sure.”
The interaction received a ton of responses from Barnes’ followers … including Deion Sanders, Jon Jones, Gilbert Arenas, Terrell Owens and more.
Hopefully, Barnes’ new crib is free of any unwanted pets!!
