Shaquille O’Neal Admits He Put His “Great Bal*s” in NBA Star’s Face to Teach Him a Lesson

Shaquille O’Neal was one of the dominant players in the NBA. His name brought one thing to his opponents: fear. “Big” Shaq used his size and athleticism to change outcomes on his own. Shaq was an absolute match-winner for the teams he played for. If there is any doubt about that, talk to his three Finals MVP awards for the Los Angeles Lakers. Shaq, because of his unique personality, also attracted a lot of mainstream attention. He dabbled in acting and rapping.

Shaq is happily retired. He is a constant presence on “Inside the NBA” as a studio analyst. Shaq also has a podcast produced by Turner Sports called “The Big Podcast with Shaq”. Co-hosts Nischelle Turner & Spice Adams joins Shaq each week to go big on everything from music and sports to what’s trending in pop culture.

This time around on the recent podcast, he was asked about Chris Dudley. According to Shaq, he embarrassed him the most. He said, “I embarrassed a lot of guys. That’s what I wanted to do but again cos remember when I look back they weren’t playing me one on one. Then, I took the one dribble and he was trying to be all strong. Then, I took the two dribble. I was all in and let me just drop step and dunk it in. I was right there by the rim and had to let him see the great b*** of fire on his face. He was touching me up and I was like get off me”.

Shaquille O’Neal and Chris Dudley

This had actually become viral on NBA Twitter and elsewhere due to the Rudy Gobert beef. Shaq had posted this exact same incident on his Instagram.

The video shows him getting pushed by Chris Dudley in one match. He was pushed so hard that he ended up with the spectators in the front seat. Shaq did not let this be. On the 28 of March 1999, Shaq took his revenge. Dudley was guarding Shaq. Unfortunately for Dudley, Shaq turned quickly and dunked the ball on him. Eventually, Shaq had his legs wrapped around him. He pushed Dudley after he got down. Later, Chris Dudley became angry as he tried to throw the ball at Shaq as retaliation.
