Jake Paul, who recently signed with the PFL, of late, expressed discontent with the virtual announcements and in-game communication of the NBA. Paul, who is expected to make his return to boxing in February, took to Twitter and addressed his vexation with this mode of NBA announcements. However, it is not the first time that ‘The Problem Child’ has called out the NBA. In the recent past, Paul called out the NBA for recruiting Matt Ryan, a former DoorDash driver, and now he seems to be not happy with virtual announcements.
