Just a few days ago, Shaquille O’Neal’s youngest son stated, “Pops just came through and blessed me🙏🏼🎄.” During the festive season, it is obvious that Shaqir would receive gifts, especially from his father, who has $500 million worth. That’s why the Lakers legend splurged on his home to make sure his kids have every facility available. Although it was done to carry out a secret agenda, nonetheless, the kids got the amenities. Recently, another kid of Shaq showcased what exactly those luxuries looked like.

Shareef shared on his Instagram his home theater experience. It also included a large faux fur bean bag in the center as the young O’Neal watched The Day of the Jackal starring Eddie Redmayne. Interestingly, Shaquille O’Neal promoted a brand, that makes this experience better just last month.

It seems like the 4x NBA Champion made sure the collaboration reached his home. This was exactly the complaint, not from Shaq’s kids but from his co-host, Kenny Smith.

Recently, Shaq-a-Claus also religiously sent gifts to several underserved kids across the country. Smith appreciated the LSU alum’s giving nature. “You do them so much differently than you do us. You give them real gifts.” And later stated his problem, “You give us gifts that you only endorse and that you get for free.”

Obviously, Charles Barkley also chimed in and called out Shaquille O’Neal’s habits. Tired of such acquisitions, the former Center asked them about gifts. “Well, cash is always king.”

Chuck also made it clear, that he won’t accept fake notes that have Shaq’s face all over them. We will see if the Inside the NBA crew received gifts from Shaq or not. But surely, the father inside O’Neal is shining the brightest this season for everything he has done for his kids.

Shaquille O’Neal went over the top for his kids

Despite being hesitant to give gifts to the Inside gang, the Lakers legend once made sure to give kids his every possible facility, “I have to thank my parents for that. I tell all kids, ‘Listen man, just make sure you always listen and respect your parents, and follow your dreams.’ So when I first bought it, it was 25,000 ft, $3 million. I started having babies.

He spoke about his previous home in Orlando, and when he became a father he only had one thing in mind. “I am one of those parents that don’t really want them to be out. So playroom, theatre, chill-out room, dining room. Oh you want to play basketball, gym, weight room. Like cars? 20 car garages.”

Shaquille O’Neal’s main concern always has been his children partying out during their teen years. He also made some special house rules to keep them in check. And it seems Shareef used one of those well-built amenities during the festive season.
