Over the years Shaquille O’Neal has managed to entertain the audience to bits. Since his NBA career started in 1992, the Big Aristotle has never managed to spend a single day without giving the audience a show. Off the court, it is his hilarious antics and, on the court, it was the terror for his opponents as he dominated in the games. However, it seems like the Big Man’s athleticism as well as playfulness aren’t restricted to him – his children and his ex-wife have quite similar qualities.

Shaq’s son is also a basketballer. Shaq’s ex-wife Shaunie Henderson put up quite a show for her fans recently when she showed off her surprising athleticism. In her late 40s now, it seems her talented kids haven’t got their athletic genes only from their father.

Back in the day, Shaquille O’Neal and Shaunie Henderson were one of the most popular couples in the NBA. Their charisma together was enthralling as both seemed to have fun and were really comfortable with each other. However, not all things last and unfortunately the duo separated in the late 2000s in a very public divorce. Although at the time their relationship wasn’t seen in a positive light, years later they managed to be comfortable with each other again to co-parent their talented kids.

Their lives today are pretty different as their five children have grown up to be self-sufficient and are leading happy lives. Shaunie remarried in 2022 and has been living happily with pastor Keion Henderson, as the couple’s social media posts illustrate.

In a new post on Shaunie’s Instagram, she can be seen having the time of her life with her husband. The duo engages in a friendly banter with Henderson challenging his wife to do a cartwheel on camera. He doesn’t seem to have much faith in her agility and is pleasantly surprised to watch her execute a perfect move. However, Shaunie isn’t surprised, as she reiterates her confidence in her ability. She once claimed that her kids inherited her basketball talents.

His wife comfortably completed the challenge and went on to post the video captioned, “I will no longer suppress my athletic abilities.”

Fans were impressed at the agility she showed and reacted with fun-filled comments:
