Former NBA player Ron Harper has apparently never heard of the satirical news outlet The Onion.
The outlet recently posted a story which states that Harper can't stop telling people that he was a member of the Olympic Dream Team.
Harper did not care for such an accusation, not knowing it was made in jest.
Whoever told them that story on @OnionSports didn't tell the truth!!!! & I don't do stop & shop stores....THANKS

If nothing else, the story has Harper's name back in the news for the first time in quite a while, so he can at least be happy about that.
