NBA legend Shaquille O’Neal is a man of many talents. Naturally, some of his traits have been passed down to his children. The Los Angeles Lakers legend has six children and all of them are doing quite well in their respective fields of interest. One of Shaq’s most talented sons is Myles O’Neal, who turned 26 today. As the internet comes together to wish Myles O’Neal a happy birthday, Shaq’s youngest son took to Instagram and posted a heartwarming video for his elder brother. 

Not only is Myles an established DJ, like his father, but he is also a very well-known figure in the fashion industry.
