Why, yes, that is Shaq lip-syncing 'Maniac' from 'Flashdance'

He's about to be inducted into the Basketball Hall of Fame, but before you think Shaquille O'Neal is suddenly going to start taking himself more seriously, well …

He steps into the "Lip Sync Battle" and channels Jennifer Beals' performance of "Maniac" in the movie "Flashdance" (and he's dancing like he's never danced before).

Clearly, if the laughs are any indication, hosts LL Cool J and Chrissy Teigen consider it a Hall of Fame-worthy performance.

"Lip Sync Battle" airs at 10 p.m. ET Thursdays on Spike.
