Kenny Smith, who works as an analyst for TNT alongside Charles Barkley, got involved in the latest twist of the LaVar Ball and Barkley saga.
Smith tweeted, on behalf of Barkley (who doesn’t have social media), a photo-shopped photo of Ball holding up a piece of paper with his 2.2 point college scoring average on a piece of paper – a spin off of Wilt Chamberlain holding up a 100 sign after his famous 100 point game.
In a previous chapter of the feud, Barkley, working as a studio analyst for CBS and TNT during the NCAA men’s basketball tournament, put on a Kent State jersey over his button up before the UCLA-Kent State game. Ball’s son is a starter for The Bruins.
And before that, Barkley called Ball’s comment that his son, LaVar, is better than the Golden State Warriors’ Stephen Curry, “stupidity.” At some point, Barkley also challenged Ball to a game of one-on-one after Ball had said that he would’ve beaten Michael Jordan solo in his prime. That game between Barkley and Ball has yet to happen.
Now, we wait for Ball to fire back at Barkley for Smith’s tweet.
