Former NBA star and seasoned commentator John Salley shared an unexpected experience of getting outplayed in a basketball match by a kid at Cedric the Entertainer's house. Salley expressed his surprise about retired players who still maintain an enthusiastic interest in the game, even after achieving significant professional milestones. He referenced former players, such as Mitch Richmond and Kenyon Martin, who still play basketball leisurely. He further revealed that he no longer plays the game himself, following his illustrious 12-year career and securing four championship rings. The conversation also touched on the controversy surrounding Ice Cube's Big3 league and the NBA, with Salley noting that rival companies can stimulate increased interest in sports, just like what is currently happening with golf and boxing in Saudi Arabia.
