Olivia Dunne is always making headlines and rightly so, as she is one of the most iconic faces. She also holds the distinction of being the highest-paid collegiate athlete. Be it her gymnastic brilliance, her social media presence, or her personal life-fans have become rabble rousers and are equally interested in everything she dips her toes in. After the LSU star met Mike Tyson earlier this month, her sister Julz Donne has now made headlines following her sister’s footsteps in terms of brushing shoulders with bigwigs.

Olivia Dunne and Julz Dunne share a very close-knit bond together. Both sisters are LSU students and are known for their friendly banter. While Shaquille O’Neal is regarded as one of the NBA’s best, Olivia Dunne recently chose Joe Burrow over him. As the LSU star salvaged her bond with Shaq later on, her sister, Julz Dunne, recently shared a cheeky update with the NBA veteran Shaq.

Julz Dunne’s close encounter of the first kind with Shaq

Julz Dunne is an LSU student as well. Gymnastics fans in particular enjoyed her saucy banter with Olivia Dunne. While Olivia Dunne has expressed her desire to catch up with the NBA legend Shaquille O’Neal quite a few times, her sister Julz Dunne recently got to share a few moments with LSU’s most well-known basketball player. In her latest Instagram story, Julz Dunne shared a selfie with Shaquille O’Neal. Owing to her sense of humor, she wrote an unintentionally funny caption on the story. “Say hello to my little friend @shaq”, Julz Dunne wrote. Shaq in no way is a little friend, as Dunne’s little friend surely meant Shaquille O’Neal’s 7ft stature.

The two stars were present together at the Halloween concert in Fred’s Bar in Tigerland. The event was lightened up by the presence of rapper and singer Boosie Badazz. While Shaq and Julz Dunne surely had a good time at the concert, everything wasn’t well between Olivia Dunne and Shaquille O’Neal, due to professional kerfuffle getting in the way, but there’s a silver lining.

Burrow has won a national title with LSU, while Shaq wasn’t successful at all in his three years at Baton Rouge. Expressing her respect for the NBA legend in the Full Send podcast, Olivia expressed that she wanted to meet Neal, and that he was a certified living legend. Fans would surely love a meetup between the two. A TikTok collaboration could be even better. Let’s see if this is in the works, though. Only time will tell.
