Sim Bhullar's stint in the NBA was brief, but it was an important milestone in NBA history.

The 7-foot-5 big man became the first player of Indian descent to ever play in the NBA when he took the court against the Minnesota Timberwolves after being called up from the D-League on a 10-day contract.

Recently, Bhullar reflected on his experience playing in an NBA game with India Today:

"I will always remember those 16 seconds," Bhullar said. "That moment to be on the court and saying that I am playing an NBA game. Especially playing against my best friend Andrew Wiggins of Timberwolves. It was a great feeling for us to be on the court together and great for me to be there."
