Though Myles O’Neal does not play basketball, he shares many other similarities with his father, Shaquille O’Neal. Just like his NBA superstar father, Myles O’Neal has ventured into numerous avenues, including the music industry, and has already become a millionaire. Shaq’s son has also been following a successful career in modeling. Besides the 25-year-old is a cheerleader for the Lakers, which was once Shaq’s home. Moreover, the supermodel has recently proved that he can be as outspoken as his father. Myles has now chimed in with a crude gesture against the recently vanquished Ja Morant. Moreover, he also showed the Grizzlies star, who is the boss.
The Memphis Grizzlies headed for the playoffs as the second seed in the West. The Lakers, on the other hand, qualified for the post-season as the seventh seed. However, when these mighty Western sides locked horns in the first game of the playoff series, the seventh seed had the last laugh. Adding insult to Ja Morant’s injury, Myles O’Neal took to Instagram and ridiculed the former, while lauding a Lakers star.
