Lamont McKinnie has a cameo appearance in Avengers 6. He grew up watching Marvel movies and with his football success he had a chance to fulfill a dream of his. His cameo is rather simple, akin to a Stan Lee cameo. He appears early in the movie trying to teach Captain America how to play basketball. Of course Captain America is awful because he has never played and the rules and game were different in the 40s. Despite being better, McKinnie gets tossed a couple times by Rogers' superior strength. The scene is played for about 20 seconds before Captain America is called to go do Avenger things. McKinnie gets 2 lines and he said in an interview that he couldn't be happier. "I was at Infinity War on opening night when I was a kid, and I've seen every Marvel movie, this is such a dream", he says. McKinnie said he sent several emails asking to be in the movie and since they wanted to have a scene introducing Captain America anyways they decided he'd fit in at the start. The directors and cast also seemed to like McKinnie and said they may try to get him another cameo in the future.
