What was supposed to be a fun event that showcased one of the greatest college hoopers of all-time suddenly turned into a mess. During the NBA All-Star Saturday night festivities (which featured Philadelphia 76ers star Tyrese Maxey had quite the event), Golden State Warriors star Stephen Curry and college sensation Sabrina Ionescu went head-to-head in a 3-point shootout.

Curry won the contest, but Ionescu kept it pretty close. There was only a four-point gap between Curry and Ionescu.

However, after the contest, Kenny Smith made a rather controversial comment. The Inside the NBA cast member commented that Ionescu should've shot from the women's 3-point line instead of the NBA 3-point line. It was a bizarre take, especially since Ionescu was close to tying Steph at least.

For the uninitiated, the WNBA's and women's college basketball 3-point line is significantly shorter than the NBA's 3-point line. The point of the event was mainly to showcase Ionescu, who shot 3-pointers way behind the college 3-point line regularly. Even 76ers star Joel Embiid chimed in and clowned Smith for his comments.

“Kenny smith been drinking lmao”

Embiid has never been shy to take a shot at anyone if it means being funny. In this case, though, the 76ers star is justified in his trolling.

Ionescu went shot for shot with Curry and even performed similarly to the contestants in the regular Three-Point contest. Reggie Miller was quick to shut down Smith's bizarre commentary and so was the rest of social media.
