Which player on your team has his name miswritten or mispronounced the most ? (alien.top)

I was on youtube and saw someone write KWAHI instead of Kawhi and I was just shaking my head lol.

Obviously names like Antetokounmpo or Wembanyama are still hard for some people (looking at you Charles Barkley), but some mistakes like Stefon Curry makes you rethink the whole education system.

Are there players on your team that get miswritten or mispronounced when you think it ain't that hard ?

I see Siakam written as Siakim a lot.

It used to be Fred Van Vleet being said as Fred Van Fleet.

Now that Im thinking about it its probably Jakob Poeltl both being miswritten and mispronounced.
