NBA legend Shaquille O’Neal is one of the funniest basketball players ever. His antics with NBA legends Charles Barkley, Kenny Smith, and Ernie Johnson on ‘NBA on TNT’ are comedy gold. And his special, ‘Shaqtin’ a Fool’ has a huge number of fans. Unlike many celebrities, he is notorious for sharing some of the most random funny things on social media. In the latest episode of ‘The Big Podcast with Shaq’, O’Neal revealed whether he would try online dating. During the podcast, Shaq, Nischelle Turner, and Spice Adams were talking about posting on social media.

The former MVP said that he likes the fact that Adams doesn’t share his love for his wife on social media. Turner agreed to it and said that she would not post anything about her love life until she’s married on social media as well. She said that everybody in the world wants to know everything about the person one is in love with.

Then Turner wanted to know whether Shaq would try online dating. He replied, “If I ever date a person on the internet? Of course. But I’m not gonna go all the way with it… Dibble-dabble, dibble-dabble. I need a person with their own mansion in the valley. That’s what I want.”

The five-time NBA champion has dated many women over the years. He recently revealed that he has dated women with children. And added that he helps raise 15 children. During an event in New York, Shaq gave away Tonka trucks to some lucky kids. He added he was amazed that the children knew him and were not afraid of him. However, he said that the kids were more excited about the toys.
