Despite his recent skid linked to Anthony Davis, Shaquille O’Neal should not see his place on the set of TNT taken away from him. No more besides than his juicy salary, which he claims to want to use for a crazy purchase at nearly 2 billion dollars!
If he rarely happens to deliver fine and sharp analyzes on the NBA and its news, this does not prevent him from being one of the best paid sports consultants on American television. Figure of TNT and its famous show Inside the NBA, Shaquille O’Neal does not have to worry regarding his retirement in view of his income. Holder of a pretty fortune, he seems to have found a way to reinvest it.
Shaquille O’Neal soon to return to the NBA?
Despite his numerous on-air mishaps, like the one who recently pitted him once morest Anthony Davis, Shaq doesn’t have much to worry regarding in his current position. On the other hand, he might combine it with another function, which would bring him even closer to the prosecution. Indeed, in a recent interview with Chris Mannix, he clearly reiterated his desire to become… a franchise owner:
“I’m interested in a certain team in Florida” ????

Shaq on his son Shareef: “I wanted him to become the same player as…”
I probably wouldn’t be a good coach, because I’m old-school mentality, like Pat Riley, Phil Jackson, Gregg Popovich. I don’t think it would suit the younger generation. I trained my son on the AAU circuit and we won the title. It was very nice, but I will never do it once more. Anyway, no NBA team contacted me to become a coach.
However, I still hope to become a franchise owner. Besides, I’m interested in a certain team in Florida. I don’t know if she’s for sale, but if she is, I’m the right man for her. And it’s not Miami.
Everyone will therefore have understood that it is indeed Orlando, where O’Neal evolved during 4 seasons in his debut in the league, and whose value is now estimated at 1.85 billion dollars by Forbes.
If he wishes to buy out the shares of the DeVos family, at the head of the shareholding of the Magic, the Diesel will therefore have to send him a very large check. This investment would make sense to him anyway, whether symbolically or economically. After all, Orlando are among the best equipped teams for the future, and are proving to be quite well placed in the fight to secure a certain Victor Wembanyama this summer!
Barely his shares of the Sacramento Kings sold, Shaquille O’Neal officially wants to join the shareholding of the Orlando Magic, and even buy it out. It remains to be seen whether the DeVos family will let him realize this oh so expensive dream!
