Former sports superstar Shaquille O’Neal is facing backlash online after his remarks toward 22-year-old basketball player Angel Reese were deemed “creepy and inappropriate” by fans.
The retired NBA player made the comments while appearing on Reese’s podcast, Unapologetically Angel, last Thursday (October 24) where he reminisced about an outfit she had worn at a sketch comedy and battle rap event hosted earlier in the month in Chicago.
“Picture you in those tiny shorts from Wild ‘N Out, dunking. You know how many T-shirts you’d sell? You’re sleeping on this,” O’Neal remarked, mentioning how the skin-tight, sky-blue shorts Reese had worn at the event could be turned into profitable merchandise due to her curves.
