Sports reporter brilliantly handles a question he couldn’t answer

It must be an absolute nightmare for sports reporters when the news anchor puts them on the spot with a tricky question.

Perhaps the best example is this exchange between the legendary Chris Kamara and Sky’s Jeff Stelling.

Kammy took it in his stride, but not as well as Denver Nuggets commentator and former NBA star, Scott Hastings, who had to field a question from Altitude TV’s Katy Winge about the Nuggets’ forward, JaMychal Green.

Watch what happened.

This is how journalism is supposed to work, right? https://t.co/47ufjRmNii
