Noah Lyles Criticizes NBA and Claims Ignorance of Nikola Jokic

The Olympic sprinter questions NBA's 'world champion' title and denies knowing the league's reigning MVP.

Lyles reiterated his stance that NBA champions shouldn't be called 'world champions' as they only compete in North America.
He claimed to not know Nikola Jokic, despite Jokic's high profile as a three-time NBA MVP.
Lyles' comments have sparked backlash from NBA players and fans, who accuse him of seeking attention.
The sprinter also expressed frustration over not receiving the same recognition as NBA players.
Lyles has previously made similar remarks about other athletes, including NFL's Tyreek Hill.
