Shaquille O’Neal and Rudy Gobert locked horns on social media constantly since 2019. O’Neal called for the Minnesota Timberwolves star to “man up” for an All-Star snub in 2019. The beef between the two has been so long and complicated that it is difficult for even long-time NBA fans to follow.

Recently, the Lakers legend added fuel to the fire after a clip of Gobert went viral. He decided to troll the Timberwolves star, and effectively reignite their longstanding beef.

Shaquille O’Neal trolls Gobert

Shaquille O’Neal and Rudy Gobert have been trolling each other for a long time, with Twitter posts, interviews etc. With Gobert saying that he’d “lock his a** up”, the beef has been anything but over. After Gobert said that, Shaq posted a clip of his most brutal and savage dunk on social media. The implication was that Gobert would face a similar fate if matched up against Shaq.

Recently O’Neal shared a story on Instagram showing a reel where Gobert ‘air-balled’ his recent open 3pt attempt against the Milwaukee Bucks. The Minnesota Timberwolves star’s failed attempt was shared in the light of trolling by the Los Angeles Lakers legend. It was also aided with hilarious commentary from a social media creator named ‘filayyy.’

Both Shaq and Gobert have been dueling on Twitter for a long time. O’Neal trolled the Timberwolves star at the beginning of this year on All things covered podcast. “I’m not gonna hate, but this should be an inspiration to all the little kids out there. You average 11 points in the NBA, you can get $200 million,”  the Lakers legend said.

Adding to that, the Lakers no. 34 had a funny reaction to Rudy Gobert being called one of the best “big men” in the league. The 7-foot-tall basketball legend decided to act as if he’d walk off the set if that statement was a fact.

Back in April, O’Neal accepted the fact that he continuously slandered Rudy and others because he was jealous and he thought only players like Michael Jordan would get that kind of money.

Gobert has taken the slander in mostly a respectful way, except hitting back a few times.

The Lakers legend has had several feuds during his career, the one with Kobe Bryant being the most famous. Fortunately, both of them squashed the beef before the untimely demise of the latter.
