GQ, if you caught that, Charles Barkley’s chances to land on the 2024 list of the Sexiest Bald Men are still alive. Every time Paul Bissonnette invades the NBA wing of TNT, things get chaotic and hilarious. This time Biz had some recommendations for the Inside Guys’ hairy situation. After all, he’s got more hair than the crew combined at Inside the NBA. But Charles Barkley shut it down to ‘stay ahead of the curve.’ While he was at it, he took Kenny down with him.

Paul Bisonette was supposed to talk about the Winter Classic when he visited the Studio J neighbors. In true TNT fashion, the crew pulled up the viral moment Biz trolled Brad Marchand for allegedly getting a “Turkish hair transplant” and got trolled back. Charles Barkley restored Biz’s dignity on Inside the NBA by pointing out that they have someone in the same boat.

“Kenny goes there too,” Chuck said, once more making fun of Kenny “The Jet” Smith’s beard which is the unpaid actor of Inside the NBA. He got Biz’s attention on him though and a recommendation. “You should go!” to the same Turkish hair transplant place Marchand and Kenny patronize, Biz meant.

But Chuck had a very valid reason to turn it down. “No, I want people to see as much of my face as possible.” And we love a Bald and Bold Barkley. Biz insists that Chuck would rock a comb-over (duh!), but he doesn’t need it.

Sir Charles is very confident about his looks. At least in comparison to certain NBA players. When he was snubbed out of the acknowledgement last year, he took it very personally.

Charles Barkley took the 2023 snub hard

In case you missed the best part of 2023, Reboot ran a poll to rank the top 10 Sexiest Bald Men which GQ published. Prince William took the top spot. Michael Jordan was somewhere in the middle. And the one and only, His Baldness, Shaquille O’Neal’s slick big head came in at No. 9. Naturally, he milked it on Inside the NBA and on Instagram, declaring himself, “Sexy Number 9.”

He came after Kenny too for missing the list. So Charles Barkley had to shrink that big smooth head. “Sexy in South Africa but Ugly as h-ll in Atlanta,” Chuckster clapped back and even accused Shaq of bribing the pollmakers into including him.

O’Neal had not come down the no.9 horse for a long time. It must have stirred something in Barkley because in a separate interview weeks later, he claimed that being left out of the list, “didn’t hurt my feelings.” However, he confidently proclaimed, “Hey, I’m not great lookin’, but I’m better lookin’ than Michael Jordan… and I’m damn sure better lookin’ than Shaquille O’Neal.” Green is not a good look on you, Charles.

Chuck’s going to burn in envy again. TNT might have not displayed it to preserve his feelings, so Shaq and Chuck may have missed the 2024 edition of Reboot’s baldalicious beauties. Not only is Chuckster’s round mound not on the list again, Big Diesel actually moved up. To the #3 spot! The new Sexy Number 9 is Stanley Tucci and Shaq’s in the Big 3 now.
