NBA legend Shaquille O’Neal has played for two of the fierce rivals in the league, the Los Angeles Lakers and the Boston Celtics. Both teams are now tied at 17 NBA titles each and are the most successful teams in history. Shaq won three straight titles with the Lakers. On the other hand, he played for the Celtics at the tail end of his career. Last year, the Celtics surprised many with their performances in the playoffs. Not many expected them to reach the finals. However, they beat all odds to win the Eastern Conference title and reach the NBA Finals.

But they were no match for the seasoned Golden State Warriors who won the series 4-2. NBA veteran and head coach Ime Udoka took the Celtics to the Finals in his first-ever season as head coach. So the fans were excited about things to come in the upcoming season. But things are looking a little bleak at the moment after the recent suspension of the head coach.
