Even though the average fan prefers not to think about the looming labor strife just around the corner in the NFL, Dolphins wide receiver Brandon Marshall is already making plans to take his professional sports career to a whole new level by trying his hand in the NBA.

According to ESPN’s Adam Schefter, the Pro Bowl receiver expects to tryout with either the Denver Nuggets or the Miami Heat, if and when the NFL owners decide to lock out the players next year.

While there have been a few athletes capable of making a successful transition from professional football to baseball, it’s doubtful that Marshall will succeed in his endeavor, given the talent needed to lock down a spot on the smaller rosters in the NBA.
