The Utah Jazz have fallen out of relevance since blowing it up in 2022, for sure. However, among everything that has gone wrong, the average NBA fan knows who Lauri Markkanen is. Or at least, well enough to know his name, no?
Well, Shaquille O'Neal apparently doesn't. When Dwyane Wade made an appearance on Shaq's podcast, Wade gushed about the JJJ trade, which, in response, O'Neal asked how JJJ would fit next to "Marky Marklin" before asking about Markkanen's exact name in full.
...Come on, Shaq.
This guy gets paid hundreds of millions a year to talk about the very league he used to play and dominate in (except against the Jazz).
