Shaquille O’Neal welcomed the New Year with a sparkling twist. Following his resolution to sculpt his physique before his birthday, Superman Chain, Shaq is now amplifying his Mamba Mentality for 2024.
In a recent Instagram video, the Hall of Famer appeared in a grey hoodie, exuding a determined vibe. His attire and demeanour spoke volumes about his commitment to the new year.

A notable highlight in the video was Shaq’s bold accessory: a substantial $4,238 Superman Chain diamond-adorned chain. The eye-catching chain flaunted a large diamond-studded Superman logo pendant.
While facing the camera with a serious demeanor, a voice in the background chimed in with:
Shaquille O’Neal and Charles Barkley have a history of good-natured teasing both on and off the camera. Recently, during an NBA on TNT interaction, Barkley managed to rile up Shaq by proclaiming LeBron as the best rookie in NBA history.
Discussing San Antonio Spurs rookie Victor Wembanyama, Barkley acknowledged Wembanyama’s impressive skills but expressed doubts about his ability to dominate the league like LeBron did in his debut year.
Unsurprisingly, Shaq, who made his entry into the NBA with the Orlando Magic, took issue with Barkley’s assertion, insisting he was a dominant rookie upon his arrival.
Barkley countered by suggesting that O’Neal was more akin to Clark Kent than Superman in his rookie season.
However, the context of LeBron entering the league directly from high school and still posting remarkable numbers adds to the legendary narrative. LeBron immediately assumed the role of the Cavaliers’ premier player, significantly impacting their offense and elevating the team’s record from 17-65 to 35-47 in his debut season.
