Shaq Had Perfect Comeback When Reporter Unleashed Charles Barkley Impression
TNT reporter Chris Haynes channeled his inner Charles Barkley on Thursday ahead of the Golden State Warriors’ matchup against the Los Angeles Lakers at Chase Center.
And Shaquille O’Neal was having none of it.
“You know who just asked about you, Shaq? ... Nobody,” Haynes quipped, referencing Barkley saying the same thing to Draymond Green during the 2024 NBA All-Star Game broadcast.
O’Neal had a comeback ready to fly.
“That was a good one,” he replied. “Have fun, because you about to be working for ESPN Deportes tomorrow.”
