Khaman Maluach showed off his music knowledge as he guessed the names of some famous musicians in the world.
The 7-foot-2 Duke center was shown pictures of musicians from different eras to guess their names. While he did not know all of them, Maluach was able to guess some of the artists on the wall.

Maluach recognised the likes of Beyonce, Drake, Jennifer Lopez, and Adele from the pictures on the wall. However, the South Sudan basketball star could not name Bad Bunny, Justin Timberlake, Elton John, and Kane Brown from their pictures.
The Duke star, however, recognized Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson and American rapper J Cole from their pictures, although he did confuse Justin Timberlake for Maroon 5.
Fans did see the funny side of the game, though, with some quoting some of the words Maluach said.
