The NBA community on social media was left shocked as Shaq O’Neal went shirtless at 50, and it turned out that he still has a body ripped enough to be playing in the NBA.
Shaquille O’Neal is widely regarded as one of the best players to ever step on a basketball court as well as one of the best centers in NBA history.
Shaq enjoyed a career spanning across nearly two decades as he won NBA championships and a MVP award, helping him be placed in the NBA Hall of Fame. However, even after retiring in 2011, Shaq still is in incredible shape.
In his prime, Shaq was known for combining his size, speed and strength in order to become one of the most dominant physical specimens that the league has ever seen.
And it turns out that even a decade after his retirement from basketball, Shaq still maintains an incredibly ripped figure that is worthy of playing in the NBA – as the Big Aristotle himself let social media know.
The 50 year old Shaq recently posted a video of him in the gym on his Instagram account, and his physique in the video sent his fans on social media into complete awe about how he still maintains his physique 11 years after retirement.
Captioning the video as “dam I’m old”, the video went on to prove anything but – as the fans complimented Shaq for his unbelievable shape.
Shaq’s devoted fan following on Instagram were left in complete shock as the NBA Hall of Famer put his ripped body up on display.
While one fan commented “Looking like you’re from 1992”, another hilariously stated that “Shaq ready to help the Lakers win next season lol” – some would find it completely normal if Shaq was drafted by the Los Angeles Lakers with his incredible physique, even at the age of 50.
It would certainly be an exciting watch to see the likes of LeBron James, Anthony Davis, Russell Westbrook and Patrick Beverley playing with Shaq – considering he is still in the shape to play his 20th season in the NBA.
