Bu** Smacked by Shaquille O’Neal on Live TV, 2x NBA All-Star’s $304,000,000 News Finds an Endorsement in Lakers Legend

News from the Celtics camp has left fans chuckling and eyebrow-raised. Moreover, NBA legend Shaquille O’Neal didn’t hold back his approval of a 2 time NBA All-Star’s skills.  The 26-year-old’s recent contract extension with the Boston Celtics is making waves in the basketball world, and it has found an unexpected endorsement from none other than the Los Angeles Lakers legend himself, Shaq.

The playful act of smacking his bu** during a live post-game interview with the Inside Crew left everyone talking.

Shaquille O’Neal: The stamp of approval

While Shaquille O’Neal is known for his incredible basketball career, as an analyst, his basketball IQ is also off the charts. His social media activity often catches the attention of fans and the media. And it did again when a Celtics star received a potentially record-breaking payday.

Recently, SportsCenter shared news of Jaylen Brown‘s staggering $304 million contract extension on their Instagram page.

Brad Stevens and the Celtics are willing to dish out some serious juice to keep Brown. Surprisingly, Shaq shared the post on his Instagram story, endorsing the signing and giving it an additional boost of visibility.

This is a shocker as Shaq has been vocal about the idea of the Boston Celtics trading Brown.

On an episode of “The Big Podcast with Shaq”, the big man emphatically said, “It will be good for Brown. So that he’ll have the opportunity to be No. 1 somewhere, because he’s a No. 1 caliber player. But I can tell that it frustrates him to be the other guy.”

Furthermore, his recent gesture with Jaylen on live TV also suggests that Shaquille O’Neal has a keen interest in Brown’s career.
