Instagram Star Kayla Simmons Adds Poolside Basketball To Her List Of Athletic Accomplishments

Kayla Simmons left her career as a volleyball player behind her long ago.  Her focus these days is on landing modeling gigs, influencing at the highest of levels, and hitting the occasional red carpet.

She's managed to keep herself plenty busy with all of those activities.

That doesn't mean the certified Instagram star, with a million plus followers, can't dust off her D1 athletic ability every now and again.  Once an athlete, always an athlete, after all.

The former Marshall volleyball player, known to some as "The World's Sexiest Volleyballer," proved that this week with what can only be assumed is a nod to the NBA playoffs.

Kayla drained a deep shot from her poolside towel and she did so with absolutely perfect form.  She was going for nothing but net the whole time and drilled the shot with lethal accuracy and pure confidence.

Don't take my word for it.  Have a look for yourself.

Add Lethal Shooter To Kayla Simmons' Already Impressive List Of Skills

These are clearly skills that translate away from the pool.  Thinking that Kayla's shot is one that can only be executed next to the pool is a huge mistake.

The quick release, the follow through on the shot, and the celebration that are all present in the clip scream "money!"  That's the kind of talent you're born with.

Kayla Simmons is a legitimate two-sport athlete.  She's not going to compete at the professional level, but she could definitely drain a few threes in a pickup game.

I mean there's not a hint of backboard on this shot.  Call me biased if you must, because I'm a lefty, but there's nothing quite like the lethal stroke of a lefthanded shooter.

Consider this Kayla's official notice.  Do not take her lightly from downtown if she walks into a gym.  If you do, she's going to bury the shot in your face and dance on your grave.
