Shaquille O Neal has always been a team player, both on and off the court. Since launching his eponymous foundation to support underserved youth in 2019, O Neal, who played for six teams during his 19-year career in the NBA, has sought to recruit an all-star roster.
âThe greatest leaders are the ones smart enough to hire people smarter,â says OâNeal. âWe ll put our resources togetherâand we re definitely going to make a difference.â
