“I’m getting older. I’m getting sexier. I’m getting meaner. I can still do what I do.”- Shaquille O’Neal
Shaq does not mince words when it comes to what he is capable of. He never has. When he has the mic, there’s no telling what he’s going to say. The trajectory of O’Neal’s career has been as equally unpredictable as his candor, foraying from NBA legend to Hip-Hop recording artist to star of the silver screen to sports broadcasting celebrity. While each of these feats are impressive in their own right, they don’t even begin to scratch the surface of what Shaq has accomplished over the course of his NBA career as well as after his retirement from the league.
