Knicks’ Josh Hart Claims Noah Lyles Can ‘Talk For Life’ Because Of His 100M Gold Medal

“Lol na he an Olympic gold medalist. He can talk for life.”

And the sole reason behind it is Noah’s comments on the NBA champions labeling them as world champions instead. Lyles stated how the NBA teams winning it all cannot call themselves world champions, as the league is only limited to the United States and Canada.

Noah’s ‘World Champions of What’ statement led to widespread hate among basketball fans, specifically the ones loyal to the NBA. Since then, Lyles has faced a lot of heat online and is often scrutinized over baseless takes, like the one by the X user above.

Josh Hart and other NBA players come to Lyles’ aid

It seems as if the X user who decided to undermine Noah Lyles didn’t just have the New York Knicks guard come to his aid but other NBA stars as well. Here is Sacramento Kings’ De’Aaron Fox giving his two cents on the troll’s take.

“He’s literally better at the 200m.”

Now, for those who are unaware, Lyles is traditionally a 200m runner who just won the 100m event in the Olympics. In the Netflix docuseries Sprint, Noah had an amusing take on the 100m and 200m dash and what it meant to him.

“The 200 is my wife and the 100 is my mistress.”

The Men’s 200m event will be taking place tomorrow, allowing Lyles to make history once again. Let’s see if the track star can etch his name in another column of the history books.
