Kai Jones has been amusing the NBA Twitter-verse with his antics throughout the summer. Hoops fans gawked their eyes at Jones. Owing to the controversial statement he made against MJ himself. “I hit middy better than mike wym,” said the 22-year-old. More recently, the Charlotte Hornets announced his absence indefinitely. According to Shams Charania of The Athletic and Stadium “here’s no timetable for his return,” citing “personal reasons.”

While, after a nine-month hiatus, teams kick off their journey for the Larry O’Brien trophy. Luka Doncic‘s teammate claims to shed light on Kai Jones’s unusual behaviour.

Kai Jones Social Media Antics

Roderick Boone of the Charlotte Observer had previously asserted that Jones’ situation with the team was unclear due to some unusual social media posts. “In a Twitter post, Jones said he’s better than Shaquille O’Neal and LeBron James and refused to back down from the comment. There’s also an Instagram video where Jones is sweating profusely and it is hard to make out what he’s saying. The video went viral and has been viewed more than 16 million times.”
