Shaq’s Brutal Criticism For Victor Wembanyama
Shaq’s Brutal Criticism For Victor Wembanyama
Shaquille O’Neal is arguably the most dominant player in NBA history.
While Michael Jordan can obviously lay claim to the designation, he could at least be stopped when he didn’t have proper help on the Chicago Bulls.
At his peak, regardless of who his teammates were, nobody in the league could slow Shaq down.
Because of that, Shaq is uniquely qualified to speak on other big men in the NBA. This week he did just that regarding Victor Wembanyama of the San Antonio Spurs.

“Wemby is a great player. But I don’t really think you can be dominant when you shoot jumpers a lot. I think if he was an inside player at 7’5″, the answer would be yes but when you shoot jumpers you’re always going to go up and down,” he saod.
“But he’s a fine player and I wish him well. I’m just glad, after not being in the league for so long, to still have my name in that category.”

During that same interview, Shaq also offered his vote for the worst player in NBA history.
Unsurprisingly, it was pretty controversial.
For better or worse, Shaq has never been one to bite his tongue. This is just the latest example of that .
