Just to be clear, the Lakers legend gave his perspective on how Morant should respond to the allegations against him. Recently, Shaq sat down with Nischelle Turner and Spice Adams for his podcast, ‘The Big Podcast with Shaq.’

Shaq asked Nischelle turner to ask him a question with him in Morant’s place. Turner asked, “Ja did you deliberately pull that gun out? Why did you have the gun on you in the first place? And did you have it on the team plane?”
