ESPN’s Stephen A. Smith is going viral again for giving a controversial description of Nuggets star center Nikola Jokić on Tuesday’s episode of First Take.
While discussing that Jokić isn’t the hardest NBA player to guard in the league right now, Smith described Jokić as a “big tub of lard.” This phrasing comes just days after Skip Bayless of Fox Sports was roasted for referring to the Serbian center as a “big tub of Crisco.”
Fans seem generally annoyed with this consistent description of the two-time NBA MVP.
