While discussing the NBA’s reigning champions, Beadle misspoke and accidently dropped the n-word, triggering laughter from her fellow analysts, former NBA stars Lou Williams and Chandler Parsons.

Though the moment passed quickly, it didn’t go unnoticed. Parsons managed to keep a straight face, but Williams couldn’t resist teasing Beadle with a playful grin, saying, “You going to be in trouble today.” The lighthearted jab added to the camaraderie and brought more smiles to the set.

Michelle Beadle has been a trusted face in sports media for over 20 years, known for her quick wit and deep knowledge of the game. Despite being born in Italy, she’s a Texas girl at heart, having attended the University of Texas at Austin and later completing her education at the University of Texas San Antonio. Her strong ties to San Antonio earned her an initial gig with the Spurs, launching her into an impressive career that includes stints with ESPN, FOX Sports, and NBA TV.
