The Los Angeles Lakers finally pulled off the trade they had been itching to make since the end of the last season. Lakers GM Rob Pelinka finally traded Russell Westbrook to the Utah Jazz via a three-team deal that landed them DeAndre Russell, Malik Beasley, and Jared Vanderbilt. However, recent reports suggested that Westbrook might end up staying back in his hometown of Los Angeles after all, as the Jazz plan on buying him out. Amid the reports about Westbrook’s chances of moving to a different team, Shaquille O’Neal recently exposed the unfortunate mistreatment of the former Lakers star and his family while talking about the tough time Westbrook had to go through during his last stint in LA. Moreover, Shaq also suggested an ultimate revenge move amid rumors that Westbrook could join the Los Angeles Clippers.

Shaquille O’Neal recently joined co-hosts Nischelle Turner and two-time WNBA champ Candace Parker during the recent iteration of The Big Podcast.
