On The July 1 episode of First Take, NBA reporter Brian Windhorst set NBA twitter on fire when discussing the Utah Jazz and their offseason plan.
He pondered why the Jazz would trade Royce O'Neal, a valued 3&D role player, in a salary dump. Windhorst hinted that the Jazz were up to something more, which turned out to be trading multi-time Defensive Player of the Year Rudy Gobert.
Windhorst's mannerisms during the segment sparked memes across social media.
