NBA legend Charles Barkley took a thinly veiled jab at Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas Sunday night in response to reports Thomas improperly received lavish gifts from a Republican megadonor.

During the popular "Gone Fishin’" segment on TNT’s broadcast, Ernie Johnson, Shaquille O’Neal and Kenny Smith admired the new megayacht graphic featured behind the crew, and Barkley didn’t miss a step in making reference to the recent allegations made against Thomas.

"This looks like the one Clarence Thomas was riding on," the NBA Hall of Famer said, "and wasn’t telling nobody."

Barkley’s co-hosts didn’t seem to take notice, and O’Neal seemingly moved the segment along. 

His comments follow a report by ProPublica earlier this month that said Thomas took luxury trips on yachts and private jets owned by GOP donor and Texas businessman Harlan Crow for decades without reporting them on financial disclosure forms.

Supreme Court justices, like other federal judges, are required to file an annual financial disclosure report that asks them to list gifts they have received but provides exemptions for hospitality from friends.
