Episode Details

Shaq drops a hilarious mic drop during TNT’s December 2023 broadcast, accidentally calling Tyrese Haliburton “Trae Young” while praising his 27-point, 15-assist game — only to blame the mix-up on someone smoking weed behind the scenes. The panel erupts in laughter, and it’s not the first time a basketball legend’s slipped up: Charles Barkley once called Tyrese Maxey “Tyrone,” ironically matching Maxey’s dad’s name. Shaq’s own cannabis stance adds flavor — he hates the smell but loves hookah — making his excuse even funnier. These gaffes remind us that even Hall of Famers are human, and their imperfections make sports broadcasts endlessly entertaining.
