On TNT’s Sunday night doubleheader, the halftime discussion of the Thunder-Pelicans game took an unexpected turn. Charles Barkley’s revelation about using Mounjaro for weight loss sparked a lively exchange with fellow commentators Shaquille O’Neal and Kenny Smith. Barkley gleefully acknowledged that Mounjaro is “a drug!”
The banter continued on Monday night before Game 2 between the Sixers and Knicks. The TNT crew had not forgotten the previous night’s antics and surprised Barkley with a pregame “”GUARANTEE!”” moment by dumping a pile of kale on his head. Shaq took the prank further by attempting to force-feed Barkley the kale, creating a comical scene reminiscent of a dog being given a pill. Barkley vigorously resisted while Shaq persisted, adding to the laughter and entertainment for viewers.
