Shaquille O’Neal is back with another Kobe Bryant tribute! The Big Diesel recreated one of his best rap songs with some dope bars. The lyrics about the Black Mamba and his daughter Gigi stood as a highlight. However, it did not stop there. Did Shaq hint at buying a WNBA team’s ownership? That’s certainly what it seems like. A few weeks back, the Los Angeles Lakers legend made news for teasing a possible comeback to the NBA. Not as a player, but as an owner.
Shaq has set his eyes on a Florida-based NBA team. Previously, O’Neal was a partial owner of another famous NBA team. However, he had to cut ties with them after things did not go as he planned. Now it looks like Shaq might have shifted his interest toward a WNBA team.

Shaq is eager to make an NBA return. The 51-year-old is just waiting for the right time. The 4x NBA champion spent most of his rookie years with the Orlando Magic. Shaq is still considered a sensation there. 34 days ago, Shaq revealed if the Magic franchise ever went up for sale, he would want to be the guy who will buy the team. While that stands in one corner, Shaq might make moves to join Magic Johnson by purchasing a WNBA team.
The 2000 MVP pulled up to a ‘Home Depot’ store to recreate his rap song, ‘I Know I got it’. It looked like Shaq was in search of the ‘Home Depot girl’ who was recently rumored to be his love interest after a leaked chat went viral. As Shaq rapped through the store, he gave a tribute to NBA legend Kobe Bryant and his daughter Gigi as well.
Shaq dropped the bar, “Can’t believe my little brother Kobe gone, thank you for the three-peat and if I talked about that thing you wouldn’t believe me!” Well, that was a cold one! The Big Diesel continued, “Might go buy the LA Sparks and change the name to the Gigis.”
