Stan Kroenke is a very wealthy man who has experienced the highest of highs when it comes to his teams winning championships. However, it seems that he has no clue how a microphone works.
The Denver Nuggets won the 2023 NBA Finals in decisive fashion, taking four out of five games from the Miami Heat. During the Larry O’Brien trophy presentation ceremony, Nuggets owner Stan Kroenke was asked to give his thoughts on the victory, but it led to a very weird moment between him and Lisa Salter who was conducting the interview.
Kroenke did the entire interview speaking directly into Lisa Salters’ ear as she tried her best to hold the microphone in front of him.
It was so incredibly awkward that ABC cut away from Kroenke talking entirely to show Nikola Jokic and other members of the Nuggets celebrating behind him as he continued to talk directly into Salters’ ear
The owner may have been confused as the noise around him may have had him thinking that Salters was the one who needed to hear him instead of everybody in the arena and millions watching at home.
Kroenke has had quite the last few years with the success of the teams he owns. Along with the Nuggets, Kroenke owns the 2022 Stanley Cup champion Colorado Avalanche and the 2022 Super Bowl champion Los Angeles Rams.
