- Charles Barkley introduced his grandson to the NBA World
- After Chuck’s comments, Kenny Smith made a wildly inappropriate joke
- Hearing this, Shaquille O’Neal burst into tears
Charles Barkley introduced his adorable grandchild, little Henry, to the NBA community. He talked about how he was driving his mom crazy, but he mentioned that he still loved him, regardless. Just as the crew was about to move on to the next segment, Smith had a joke.
But after realizing that it was Chuck’s grandson, Smith was hesitant to tell the joke. But Shaq insisted, and Smith finally obliged.
Kenny Smith said:
“I would’ve said – I would’ve said, if it wasn’t no little Henry, like – Little Henry slow.”
But Chuck later clarified that Henry was just 9 months old and not 9 years old. However, Shaq was already in tears and he even instigated Smith later in the segment.
Kenny Smith added:
“I was looking at little Henry at nine years old, struggling to say Big Pop at 9 years old. It didn’t make sense. I was like, It doesn’t make any sense, Ernie.”
