Taking inspiration from fellow Hall of Famers, 4x NBA champion and Los Angeles Lakers legend Shaquille O’Neal is all set to join the list of NBA greats who have a documentary series made on them. No documentary series can truly capture the essence of O’Neal’s remarkable career and larger-than-life personality. However, the show-runners at HBO are attempting just that with the help of the man himself.

Any NBA All-time list that excludes the 7’1” monster of Los Angeles is blasphemy in NBA circles. The NBA has not seen the likes of Shaquille O’Neal in its storied 75-year history. O’Neal was one of the most dominant big men in his era, a man among boys. The Big Diesel had become a global icon at the height of his carer. However, like always, there was more to what meets the eye. The new HBO special ‘SHAQ’ aims at shedding light on O’Neal’s journey.

Shaquille O’Neal gives a bold warning in the trailer of his new documentary, ‘SHAQ’

HBO recently announced the release date of NBA legend Shaquille O’Neal’s four-part documentary, dubbed ‘SHAQ.’ The first part of the docuseries will debut on November 23rd, Wednesday. The remaining parts will air the following Wednesdays. The series attempts to cover O’Neal’s journey to the NBA, his stint with the Lakers, his twilight years as a journeyman in the league, and then his foray into business and television. HBO also released a cinematic trailer for the docuseries on Monday.

In the enthralling trailer, we get a glimpse of what the docuseries attempts to capture from O’Neal’s legacy and the general format of the show. Throughout the trailer, Big Diesel is sitting on a massively sized sofa, making him look ‘normal.’ In one of the segments, the Hall of Famer revealed the words one should never say in front of him unless one wants to experience the wrath of his fists. He said, “When people start talking, Shaq ain’t all that, ‘overrated,’ those are the words that I’ll punch you in your face for.”?

Judging from the three-minute trailer, the show-runners plan to explore the different phases of O’Neal’s life sequentially through the four parts. Moreover, we can also see a lot of notable interviewees like Pat Riley, Dwyane Wade, Phil Jackson, and Mother Lucille, revealing their thoughts on the Big Aristotle.
