Usually, sports fans love what Shaquille O’Neal and Charles Barkley have to say on “Inside the NBA.” That wasn’t the case on Wednesday night.
O’Neal and Barkley couldn’t stop laughing after Ernie Johnson mentioned that Lakers star Anthony Davis left Game 5 in a wheelchair.
Even though O’Neal and Barkley tried to play it off as if they weren’t mocking Davis, their history with the eight-time All-Star says otherwise. For years, they’ve referred to him as “Street Clothes.”
Johnson tried his best to calm down his colleagues, but that didn’t work.
As you’d expect, NBA fans are furious with O’Neal and Barkley’s behavior. There’s no place in the league for mocking injured players.
Smh but do they do this for any other player ? Nah ????????Shaq a laker too wtf https://t.co/I4ya1XIdG1

“Shaq and Barkley laughing at AD getting injured. They do this shit every time he gets hurt,” one person tweeted. “Snoop goes on joking on AD’s name. All 3 losers. Making fun of players being injured is never okay.”

Another person said, “I’m glad that clip of Shaq and Barkley laughing about AD’s injury is getting viral. Everyone seeing how weird they be with injuries especially with AD.”

Davis was ruled out of Game 5 shortly after getting hit in the face by an inadvertent elbow.
The Lakers will provide an update on Davis later this Thursday.
