Barkley has joked about other NBA players' choice of outfits in the past.

Enstars reported back in February that Oklahoma City Thunder guard Russell Westbrook experienced a serious meltdown on the sidelines after an offensive position during a game, that left many fans and sports analysts wondering what happened, even Westbrook himself. Barkley explained his reason for the reactions of All Star guard and said:

"I think i know what happened. I think when he left home this morning, he was dark and he realized he put that shirt on."

Barkley has struggled with weight issues over recent years his retirement from the NBA, and in the past he has even filmed commercials for Weight Watchers.

In 2011, the former basketball player spoke to ESPN about his insecurities: "I played in NBA at about 250 pounds, and when I took my physical I was at 350 ... So I had gained 100 pounds since I quit, and my doc said to me, 'Let me break this to you: If you keep going this way, you're going to die [young]. You're going to have a stroke or you're going to develop diabetes or you're going to have a heart attack or hypertension. But A, B or C is going to happen.'

Barkley is known to be vocal about issues he feels strongly about. He rejected the idea of former Baylor women's basketball player Brittney Griner playing professional basketball with men when Dallas Mavericks owner Mark Cuban said he'd higly cinsider the 6-foot-8 player in the second of the NBA draft if she became available.

"She can't play against guys. I mean, you're going to go at her, probably aggressively, cause you're offended that she's trying to play against you cause it's kind of an insult to you. But she can't play with men," he said.
