It seems like NBA legend Shaquille O’Neal fell victim to his son’s prank. Shaq recently posted a reel on his Instagram account. The video showed Myles O’Neal playing a harmless prank on dad while he was taking a nap. The O’Neal boys seemed to head off somewhere as they were traveling on a private jet. O’Neal himself is a huge prankster. So the only people who would get away with such acts are his kids. Perhaps, that’s why Myles didn’t think twice before he decided to disrupt Shaq’s nap.

In the video, the Los Angeles Lakers legend was seemingly taking a good nap in his seat. That was when Myles quietly approached with a mischievous smile on his face and grabbed a pack of Cheetos from the nearby shelf in the jet.

As Myles settled back in his seat, probably Shaqir, who was filming the whole act, woke Diesel up from his nap. Shaq immediately spout out the Cheetos from his mouth, seemingly annoyed, as Shaqir broke out in laughter. “my son @mylesoneal know i love them @cheetos,” Shaq wrote in the caption box.
