New Orleans Pelicans players J.J. Redick and rookie Nicolo Melli made plans on a recent day off to hit the golf course but the 14-year veteran hilariously left his teammate high and dry.

The NBA has created several activities that players can partake in inside of the bubble. Among the amenities, players can take advantage of the golf courses on-site at the Walt Disney World Resort, which has become a popular choice to kill some time.

Redick has been seen previously at the golf course since arriving last week but, as Melli detailed on Thursday, he apparently did not want to go golfing this time.

Thanks to JJ, who stood me up, I woke up very early in the morning because we were supposed to go play golf. He texted me that he didn’t want to go anymore but I still set the alarm very early so I woke up very early with nothing to do. I read a book, went to the pool and had some therapy.

Despite spurning Melli recently, the two have apparently reconciled things as Redick posted on Friday morning that he was making up for standing him up with Melli’s first golf lesson.
