Then Adams said that he wants to give Shaquille O’Neal some facts. He said, “You played about 53 games with LeBron. That 2009-2010. Nischelle and I have done 64 shows with you. So, we got birthdays too, you know what I’m saying. We like nice things. Just throwing it out there, man. You do whatever you want to do.” O’Neal replied, “I can get you a Diesel diamond watch right now!”?

Over the course of his career and after his retirement, Shaq has been one of the most generous ever. He has shown multiple times his random act of kindness to people in the community. So it might not be a huge surprise that he would offer something expensive as a diamond watch for a close friend like Spice Adams. As per reports, the Big Aristotle has a net worth of $400 million.

During his long and illustrious career, O’Neal has played with some great players like Kobe Bryant, Dwyane Wade, LeBron James, etc. However, he was not able to win a championship during his partnership with LeBron James for the Cleveland Cavaliers. O’Neal played one season for the Cavs in the 2009-10 season and played 53 games.

But he was at the tail end of his career at that time and was not the dominant force he once was. He averaged 12 points and 6.7 rebounds per game that season. Shaq then played for the Boston Celtics the next year, following which he announced his retirement from the NBA.
