Often dubbed ‘The Big Aristotle,’ Shaquille O’Neal is known for his big size. Shaq takes it all on the chin as he sometimes indulges in self-deprecating humor to give the fans a good time. O’Neal was always known for his big hands, as fans would remember, the kind of hands on which the ball would just stick. In a recent episode ‘The Big Podcast,’ co-host and friend Anthony Adams mocked Shaq’s enormous hands.

Anthony ‘Spice’ Adams decided to mock  his dear friend when the camera zoomed in on Shaq holding one of his favorite snacks.

Spice on Shaquille O’Neal

The Big Aristotle’s hands are known to be ginormous, with a length of 10.5” and a span of 12”, which can easily handle a basketball like a small fruit. Adams, however, decided to troll his colleague when Shaq held a bag of Cheetos in his hand.

That’s a family-sized bag, hold it up again,” said Adams. He further added “Hold that Cheetos up again, that’s a family-sized bag. Look how big Shaq’s hands is.” 

The Big Aristotle was mentioning his preference for snacks and hence held up the bag of Cheetos. It’s not the first time the legend was mocked for his hands. A while ago, Shaquille O’Neal decided to replicate Kawhi Leonard holding two bottles in one hand, and what ensued felt like a laughter track.

There are plenty of incidents that reiterate Shaq’s enormous size, and many of them have ended up as memes on social media. He once held up a chicken wing in the ‘Hot Ones’ and fans wondered how many would the giant require to be full.

The Los Angeles Lakers legend’s first memory will always be a towering figure on the basketball court. His presence on-court was already a one-down situation for the opponents. Shaq’s dominance alongside his teammate and long-time friend Kobe Bryant helped the Lakers to win the NBA Championship three times on trot. However, he has moved on since.
