After LeBron James took a shot at the Utah Jazz earlier this week, new team owner Ryan Smith had a seemingly not-so-subtle response ahead of the NBA All-Star Game on Sunday.
On Thursday, after Donovan Mitchell and Rudy Gobert were the last two players picked in the All-Star draft by James and Kevin Durant, James said, “There’s no slander to the Utah Jazz. In video games growing up we never played with Utah. Even as great as Karl Malone and John Stockton was we would have never picked those guys in video games, never.”
Sunday afternoon, Smith posted on Twitter a pair of T-shirts with graphics of Malone and Stockton and from the old video game “NBA Jam” (the shirt has been around for quite sometime).

Smith captioned the tweet, “All Star vibes.”
