1. Turner Sports announced Monday that Ernie Johnson, Charles, Barkley, Kenny Smith and Shaquille O’Neal have all signed long-term contracts to continue hosting Inside the NBA.
The New York Post’s Andrew Marchand reported that Barkley’s deal is for 10 years and worth north of $100 million. Barkley celebrated the new contract by immediately telling The Dan Patrick Show, “There’s probably zero chance I’m gonna stay for the entire 10 years, to be honest with you.”
As usual, Barkley’s appearance on the show was great because of his honesty. When asked about signing such a lucrative deal, Sir Charles said, “If I don’t have enough money by now, I’m a big idiot.”
