Summary
Tuesday morning, Stephen A. Smith publicly challenged Donald Trump to a debate and said he would match his IQ against the president's.
The broadside came after Trump, leaving Madison Square Garden following the Knicks' 115-111 Game 3 loss to the Spurs, said Smith lacked the high IQ needed to run for president.
Smith also mocked Trump for appearing to doze in Knicks owner Jimmy Dolan's suite and urged him not to return for Game 4, saying New Yorkers and the team needed a break.
The clash extends a year of Trump-Smith sparring tied to Smith's teased 2028 White House ambitions, with Trump offering no public response on Tuesday.
