In many ways, many have sensed that NBA future hall-of-famer, Shaquille O’Neal would be retiring from basketball. Having won championships in Los Angeles and Miami, Shaq has been fighting injuries for several seasons and unable to play.
So, Shaq has taken to Twitter and posted the following video on Youtube:
In an interview with espn.com, Shaq said, “I really, really thought about coming back but this Achilles is very damaged and if I had it done the recovery would be so long we’d have same outcome as this last year — everyone sitting around and waiting for me.”
Thank you Shaq for the many memories you have given us and most of all, for me, I thank you for bringing us those championships to Los Angeles!
