Shaquille O' Neal is a retired American basketball player. As of the moment, his estimated net worth is at $400 million. He became one of the most dominant centers in pro basketball's history. He was very tall at 7'1" (2.16 m) and huge at 300 pounds (147 kg). Shaquille last played in the National Basketball Association or NBA for the Boston Celtics. He eventually became an analyst on the television program called Inside the NBA.
O'Neal was the son of an army drill sergeant. He moved to Los Angles in 1996 and won the NBA championship for three consecutive years with Kobe Bryant. His team traded him to the Miami Heat after playing for Los Angeles for eight seasons. He led the Heat to the national championship last 2006 with young guard Dwayne. Phoenix Suns traded him to the Cleveland Cavaliers after a disappointing season last 2009.
Shaq signed with the Boston Celtic in August 2010 and retired afterward. His 19-year career allowed him to earn $292 million in salary and endorsements. He retired from the game in June 2011. Aside from basketball, O'Neal also had rap albums. They were You Can't Stop the Reign (1998) and Shaq Diesel (1993).
O'Neal also appeared in films like The Wash, Steel, Kazaam, and Blue Chips. Last 2007, he had his own "reality" show called Shaq's Big Challenge.
