The mogul experimented with deejaying out of his pure love for music. Flash forward to his post-playing career, Shaq, under the moniker of DJ Diesel, established himself as a successful and respectable figure in the music industry. He is also a successful entrepreneur, with over 50 brands associated with him. He also had a venture with five guys’ burger restaurants. Unlike Koby, Brady, or LeBron who had dedicated their prime fervently to basketball, Shaq was the Jack of all trades, with basketball being just a part of the activities he was involved in.

According to Colin, Jordan’s post-playing career was marred by negligent business choices. He also failed to establish a successful team in Charlotte.
