Volunteering to be a posterizer makes Keion Henderson the stepdad of the year. He brought the extra factor to Shaqir O’Neal’s jaw-dropping collaboration with SKIMS and deserves to be acknowledged. That’s where hype woman extraordinaire, Shaunie Henderson comes in. She’s not only the excited mom celebrating her son’s promotion for Kim Kardashian’s lauded brand, but she applauded her husband for making that video a great one.

Like most of Shaquille O’Neal’s family, Shaunie too shared Shaqir’s SKIMS Reel on her Instagram Stories so her 1.8 million followers could catch it. And she took note of that moment Shaqir leaped over Pastor Keion to make a dunk with a small, “I see you @pastorkeion” and heart eyes emoji.

Henderson had a cheekier response to his contribution to making Shaqir look good. “The only way @shaqironeall can dunk on me,” he wrote in his Stories.

The Reel looks like it was filmed at Shaunie and Keion’s residence in Houston. Shaunie was also under the original post commenting, “That’s my baby @kimkardashian,” with heart eyes emojis.

Shaqir is currently playing on the Texas Southern Tigers basketball team. He’s busy in the NCAA Tournament with the first round on Tuesday. Shaquille O’Neal is going to keep up with the tournament as part of the TNT March Madness coverage. Seeing as he has Shaq’s ability to make posterizing dunks, his tournament chances are looking good. He’s also now showing his dad’s ability to make a great endorsement with this SKIMS gig.

The 20-year-old Shaqir was elated about the opportunity. He left heart hands emojis for Kim Kardashian and her brand under the Reel. His family didn’t miss his biggest endorsement deal yet either.

Besides his mother and stepfather’s cute reactions, his family and friends, like Myles O’Neal also shared the post several times. Me’Arah wrote an ecstatic, “Yeah twin!” 

His other brother, Shareef though was looking for some perks coming his way. Other than tagging Kim Kardashian herself under Shaqir’s post, probably offering himself as a brand rep, he asked Shaqir for some SKIMS merch.

He should’ve asked their dad instead. Kim sent SKIMS goodies to the large guys of Inside the NBA but Shaq is apparently not using it the way Chuck and Kenny are. He instead asked Kim to send his co-hosts more. At least one O’Neal is making the most of SKIMS.
