Tyrese Maxey and Scottie Barnes had missed 6 wide-open layups at the shooting challenge in the 2022 All-Star Weekend.

Yet again, this season was full of action-packed drama that made it as entertaining as ever. With the 2021-2022 campaign reaching its final destination, NBA on TNT recently released the best Shaqtin’ A Fool moment from this past year.

Even though it was James Harden who won the infamous honor, Tyrese Maxey and Scottie Barnes gave us a good laugh with their awful shooting display at the 2022 All-Star Weekend.

For those who don’t know, back in February, the duo teamed up together for the Clorox Clutch Challenge. Despite being two of the best youngsters in the league, Scottie and Tyrese went on to miss 6 wide-open layups.

Tyrese Maxey rightfully predicted that they would appear on Shaqtin’ A Fool after their horrid shooting

Immediately after their performance got over, Maxey knew they would be featured on Shaqtin’ A Fool. The Philly guard told the Raptors rookie:

“It was funny though, we made people laugh. Positive. We may have got some followers too. We’re going to be on Shaqtin’ A Fool tomorrow.”
