Shaquille O'Neal discovered his love of basketball while spending
time in an afterschool program called the Boys & Girls Club of
America. Standing over six feet tall by the time he turned eleven
years old, Shaq - - as he is affectionately known - - continued to
practice the game and stunned the country with his phenomenal
skills. From leading his high-school team to its first-ever state
title to becoming the first pick in the 1992 NBA draft and going on
to win four NBA championships, Shaq proved that he could dominate
almost any player. But the fifteen-time All Star who played for six
teams throughout his nineteen-year NBA career isn't just a force on
the court, he is also an actor, television host, musician, and
businessman who is always ready to crack a joke or bust a dance
move. With such a welcoming personality and immense talent, it is
easy to see why Shaquille O'Neal is often considered one of the
greatest players in NBA history.
