show out

In sports, when an athlete has a superlative (if he is a star) or uncharacteristically good (if he is a lesser/role player) performance. Usually applied to fantasy teams, but can be used in a general sense as well.

Synonym- blow up
Antonym- ho' out

1. The Star

Fantasy Football Player 1 (mimicking Denzel): "King Kong ain't got nothin on me!"

FFP2: "Get outta here man, I would have beaten you by at least 10 points if Adrian Peterson hadn't showed out with over 300 yards."

2. The Role Player

Fantasy Basketball Player 1: "What are you talking about, Eric Dampier gets 20 points, 10 boards, and 5 blocks all the time"

FBP2: "Quit lyin to yourself. Those numbers are Erica's biggest showout in like 10 years"

3. The Non- Fantasy Player

Stephen Curry baby--puttin Davidson on his back with a 40 point show out. How you like them apples??

4. Famous Usage

Brendan Haywood, center for the Washington Wizards, screaming in the face of 20-year-old Andray Blatche in the pregame introductions of one of Blatche's first starts:

"Show out or Ho' out!"
