The Inside the NBA crew pranked Charles Barkley by swapping out his Diet Coke for a mystery drink

The Inside the NBA crew can always be counted on for some delightful shenanigans, and Charles Barkley landed himself on the prank list on Thursday night.

During a show break, Barkley’s co-hosts swapped out his mug filled with Diet Coke for a mystery beverage and left him to find out the new drink in his mug as they got a good kick out of it.

The camera crew caught Barkley’s reaction to discovering that the beverage in his mug was most certainly not Diet Coke, which got a huge laugh out of everyone on set.

Poor Barkley; don’t mess with a man’s Diet Coke!

Barkley was obviously a good sport for being pranked, as he’s undoubtedly been behind some great pranks on his co-workers during his time on the show.

This is just the latest example of how Inside the NBA is one of the most unpredictably enjoyable shows in the sports space.
