It was a shocking and almost funny incident as FanDuel Network analyst Michelle Beadle experienced an unfortunate slip-up on air Friday. While she was introducing a segment about the Denver Nuggets, she inadvertently used a racial slur instead of saying “Nuggets.”
Michelle Beadle quickly recovered from the mistake, but her colleagues, Lou Williams and Chandler Parsons, were visibly shaken. Williams burst into laughter, while Parsons maintained his composure, as he covered his mouth in surprise.
Michael Porter Jr. recently said, ‘aw I don’t like this, that if the [n-word], the Nuggets don’t win this… Don’t try to get me on that.

A veteran sports journalist, who fans remember for her issue with LeBron James, Beadle has built a distinguished career that has spanned over two decades. She has worked with top media outlets, including ESPN, FOX Sports, and NBA TV, and got her start with the San Antonio Spurs.

Beadle had acknowledged the incident, as she took to her Instagram story to express her shock. Turner’s response, which apparently added to the wave of public reaction, brought more attention to the incident as fans and followers weighed in on Beadle’s unintentional blunder.
The moment you say ‘Nuggets’ incorrectly on television and your entire career flashes… while your cohosts die. Broadcasting students: slow down. And enunciate.

FanDuel TV later addressed the situation in a statement to the New York Post, as they called the slip a “gaffe” and reinforced that it was simply a mistake. With no indication that Beadle’s role is in jeopardy, she and her co-hosts are expected to continue their regular NBA coverage on Monday.
