Back in May when Shaquille O’Neal busted on LaVar Ball and his new “overpriced” $495 Big Baller Brand shoes tweeting, “real big baller brands don’t over charge kids for shoes.” Yeah, it was just the first shot fired in many over the following weeks between these two prominent sports dads.
After seeing that, LaVar Ball fired back at him asking why Shaq’s son Shareef, who is a highly-touted high school prospect, doesn’t wear Shaq’s signature shoes?
Then a few days ago Shareef that said he could beat LaMelo Ball in a game of one-on-one.
His dad, naturally, agreed. (Shareef is 17, LeMelo is 15, and Shareef has 5 inches on him, by the way.)
Well, based on all of that LaVar challenged Shaq and his son to face off against himself and LaMelo in a game of two-on-two.
Sunday night, Shaq decided to accept LaVar’s challenge as only The Big Aristotle could…
“If lavar ball beats me I’ll superglue this wig to my head forever. It’s only one BIG BALLER BRAND and that’s me THE SHAQ BRAND. Wake up bro. I made more free throws in a game then the Points you averaged mr 2.2 a game. Respect this first balloter #relax #justwatchyoursonplay #shhhhhh #youtoloud #youcanneverbeattheonealboyz.”
Hilarious, and based on some of LaVar Ball’s game tape from back in the day I am thinking Shaq’s head is pretty safe.
