Stephen A. Smith’s Random Diss of Lakers’ Dennis Schroder Had NBA Twitter Laughing

The ESPN analyst’s comment about Schroder’s hairline stirred up a strong response on social media.

ESPN’s Stephen A. Smith took an unprovoked shot at Lakers guard Dennis Schroder on Wednesday, taking to Twitter to quote tweet a photo of Schroder.

The tweet Smith was responding to features two images of Schroder, one from his time with the Hawks, and one from this season in Los Angeles.

Smith, seemingly out of nowhere, took the opportunity to take a shot at Schroder over his hairline, while also having a laugh at his own expense in the process.

“Haaaaa! See......there are actually others worse than me!!!” wrote Smith on Twitter.

It’s not the first time Smith has pointed out someone’s hairline on Twitter, having previously done so to Celtics guard Derrick White during the Eastern Conference Finals. 

Naturally, NBA fans had plenty to say about the comment from the First Take host, and they weren’t shy about letting him know that his hairline was still far worse than Schroder’s. 

Haaaaa! See…..there are others actually worse than me!!! https://t.co/wLNKMJzr6E
