Shaquille O’Neal puts Adam Silver in a spot with a difficult question

The 4x NBA champion is known for speaking his mind, although this time Shaq was asking the questions and the NBA’s commissioner was the one answering them. The question was about Ja Morant and his most recent controversy.

Morant is now infamous for his antics off the field. As much talent as he has, Morant hasn’t been in the news this year for the right reasons. One after the other, his series of detrimental conduct has unfolded in front of the world and the NBA has been left with no other option but to sit him out. At the moment, the 23-year-old remains suspended from the league till further notice.
