Today, guards dominate the game of basketball. However, that was not always the case prior to the big men era. One of the pioneers in this regard is the Hall of Fame center, Bill Russell. Ever since retirement, Russell has had many funny moments. Now, it seems he is continuing the trend by challenging Shaquille O’Neal as well as Candace Parker’s daughter.

Russell is one of the most successful basketball players of all time. With 11 championships to his name, no one is close to catching up to him anytime soon. Moreover, he and Wilt Chamberlain paved the way for future big men. Likewise, O’Neal has a lot of respect for Bill Russell for being one of the pioneers of his position.

However, it seems their competitiveness never dies.

Russell put out a Twitter post and issued a challenge to Shaquille O’Neal and also Candace Parker’s daughter.
