ESPN basketball analyst Kendrick Perkins got himself into hot water last week when he suggested that NBA MVP voters have a racial bias that plays into their voting of Nuggets star Nikola Jokić, who is the frontrunner to take home his third straight league MVP.
Even more attention was put on Perkins earlier this week, after fellow ESPN basketball analyst JJ Redick roasted him on First Take for his take on the media members who vote for Jokić.
TNT’s Charles Barkley, who is no stranger to cracking jokes at the expense of others, got into the action as he threw shade at the controversy surrounding the network’s broadcast competitor.
