Shaquille O'Neal's son officially signs with UCLA: report

A son of former LSU basketball star Shaquille O'Neal has officially signed with UCLA.

Shareef O'Neal, ESPN's No. 32-ranked prospect in the Class of 2018 and the top-ranked player from California, will enroll in school this month.

He committed to UCLA in February. But reportedly because of academic reasons, he didn't sign a National Letter of Intent in the spring period.

As a senior power forward, the 6-10, 205-pound O'Neal averaged 27 points per game as he led Crossroads School (of Santa Monica) to a California Division III state title.
