Charles Barkley played his first hilarious game of ‘Who he play for?’ this season and it went exactly how you think

Every time the Inside the NBA crew chooses to put Charles Barkley through the ringer in a game of “Who he play for?” I get so conflicted.

For those of you who don’t know, this is the game where Barkley has to guess where some of the role players across the NBA are playing ball now.

On one hand, man, I feel like Barkley should know exactly who these dudes play for. He is one of the most notable basketball analysts on television. Isn’t it part of his job to know who these people are and what teams they play for?

On the other hand? Yo. This is some fantastic television.

Every time Barkley plays this game it’s just embarrassingly bad. He played it again on Thursday night to open the season and, yes, it went exactly how you’re probably thinking it went.

Turribly, as Chuck would say.

The man went 1-for-5, y’all. That’s bad. Really bad. But the laughs! The laughs were so good.

This had NBA fans cracking up.
