The Washington Wizards will be giving away this Marcin Gortat action figure, presented by Capital One, on Saturday, January 31st. The action figure should add to the atmosphere for what should already be an exciting game as the Wizards host the Eastern Conference leading Toronto Raptors, who they've had some interesting games against in recent years.
If you make it out to the game, you'll be able to use your Marcin Gortat action figure to stare at walls, hold sledgehammers, get into cars awkwardly, get out of submarines awkwardly, race riding lawnmowers, rip towels, talk about pierogis, walk pigs at grocery stores, scream quotes from 300, pose with parrots, sneak into Celtic huddles, and drive assault vehicles, among other things.
The Gortat action figure giveaway is one of several giveaways the Wizards will be doing this year, and follows last year's great Nene bobblehead giveaway, that led to lots of great images during and after the game.
UPDATE: Marcin Gortat shared his thoughts on his action figure:
Marcin Gortat on his action figure: "I think it looks beefy." Said Nene would be his sidekick.

Also, Gortat confirmed that the thing in his midsection is indeed a belt.
