Charles Barkley discusses what Montrezl Harrell called Luka Doncic: ‘You don’t get to have a double standard’

The incident from Game 3 of the Dallas Mavericks’ playoff series against the Los Angeles Clippers in which Clippers forward Montrezl Harrell appeared to call Luka Doncic a “(expletive) white boy” ended with Harrell apologizing and the pair hugging it out before Game 4.

But it was still the subject of discussion among NBA fans as well as with the crew on Inside the NBA that resulted in an in-depth and frank conversation.

Kenny Smith was glad Harrell apologized and added, “We all need to break the habit” of using that kind of language. Shaquille O’Neal noted a lot of things are said to competitors on the court, and Charles Barkley pointed out “you can’t have a double standard.”

“The reason he apologized, he shouldn’t have said it,” Barkley added.

WARNING: some NSFW language ahead:
