Controversial FS1 pundit Skip Bayless has come under fire on social media, after he made bizarre comments about Warriors star Stephen Curry during Friday's episode of "Undisputed."
Bayless, discussing Curry's legacy after the Warriors won their fourth NBA championship in the past eight years, made multiple references to Curry's skin tone during a seemingly unhinged rant.
"I just know what I see, and did not see, from little light-skinned Steph," Bayless said. "There've been too many times when he got so light-skinned in the Finals, I couldn't see him anymore -- because he turned into a ghost."
Sharpe laughed at Bayless' apparent attempt at humor. The Football Hall of Famer previously made similar remarks about Phoenix Suns star Devin Booker on "Undisputed."
On social media, several users voiced their displeasure with Bayless' divisive and racist drivel.
Some predicted an apology, while others even called for his firing.

@RealSkipBayless Not sure why you referred to Steph Curry as “light-skinned” at least 3 times on Undisputed this morning but that is not okay.
