These last few weeks have been a crazy ride for Shaquille O’Neal. The Big Man was seen with a woman, well-known in the NBA community, which created a lot of buzz. Later, Shaq slid into the DMs of the latest internet sensation the Home Depot Girl. Now the NBA legend is being dragged for the DMs he sent her as he tries to defend himself.
To make things worse, people are bringing in the old receipts, related to the stories that Shaq would probably want to forget. Recently, in one such instance, Shaq was called out for being a hypocrite, while being reminded that he played a big role in almost ruining the late Kobe Bryant‘s marriage.

He also said that his job is to uplift people, and that’s what he was trying to do by sending such messages. This prompted a full-blown response from Akademiks as he took to his YouTube channel to address it properly. He stated that Shaq was just trying to impress the girl, and he chose a way that wouldn’t be offensive from the looks of it.
