Shaquille O’Neal let it rip Thursday night during the “Inside the NBA” on TNT. O’Neal and Charles Barkley raced to the big board during the broadcast in front of a live audience in San Francisco. For the record, Shaq won the race, but it was what he said when he got back to the desk that had people’s attention.

During halftime of a game between the Minnesota Timberwolves and Oklahoma City Thunder on TNT, Shaq raced fellow Inside the NBA analyst Charles Barkley to the video board in the back of the set—as is tradition over the years. But this time was in front of a live audience in the Bay Area ahead of the 2025 NBA All-Star Weekend.
