NBA legend Shaquille O’Neal was one of the most dominant players to grace the basketball court. During his prime, he was unstoppable on both ends of the court. Shaq was also a great entertainer on and off the court during his career. Multiple teammates have disclosed how funny Shaq was in the dressing room and during practice sessions.

O’Neal continues to entertain fans long after his retirement. Shaq has been on a European tour as ‘DJ Diesel’ recently. So in the recent episode of the ‘Big Podcast with Shaq’, Nischelle Turner brought up the Greece tour.

The Lakers legend said that if he is single, there is no story there. However, Turner said that the optics are not great. She couldn’t believe that Thompson has another baby on the way but he is walking through the streets of Greece. And the Big Diesel replied, “He is allowed to do that.”

Shaq also mentioned that everyone is speaking about it but not Khloe Kardashian. He puzzled that if she isn’t talking about it, why everyone is so concerned.

Khloe Kardashian and Tristan Thompson are expecting their second child through surrogacy. But not everyone is a fan of this news. As soon as Khloe and Thompson broke the news, Kourtney Kardashian unfollowed the Chicago Bulls Star on Instagram. Also, Kim Kardashian posted a cryptic message on her Instagram that read: “Girls can see the difference between 200 shades of nude lipstick but they can’t see red flags.”
