Michael Beasley and Lance Stephenson recently played a one-on-one game for $100,000. Their game was the main event of the TNC 02 pay-per-view basketball event.

The one-on-one matchup was good. Beasley won 31-21 over Stephenson to win the $100K. This was a great idea by TNC, something the NBA should consider for the All-Star Game.

After the game, things quickly became strange. Stephenson wrote to Beasley on Instagram, “Great game bro.” What Beasley responded with has had fans scratching their heads.

“I love you to the moon and back… Now grab a cigarette and a towel… We made a sex tape Kim K would envy.”

“We made a sextape Kim K would envy.”

This message by Beasley shows he truly enjoyed his matchup with Stephenson. He may have gone a little too far with his comparison to Kim Kardashian, but that’s ultimately up to him to decide.
