Shaq Called Out After Suggesting Angel Reese Should Dunk In “Little A** Shorts’ – Objectifying Folk Ain’t Cool!

While discussing ways the WNBA can continue to grow their league on Reese’s podcast “Unapologetically Angel,” Shaq, 52, told the rookie Chicago Sky player, 22, that she should consider dunking the basketball in the same kind of “little a** shorts” she wore to a recent Wild N’ Out show in the windy city.

Reacting to the remarks, many internet users blasted Shaq, arguing the comment was “disrespectful” especially considering their 30-year age gap.

Others defended the NBA champion, claiming that Reese wouldn’t wear certain things if she didn’t want to be talked about.

Elsewhere in the podcast, Shaq made it clear that he’s like a “mentor” and “big brother” to Reese, adding that anyone who believes he’s attracted to her in a sexual way doesn’t know him at all.

Are Shaq’s comments cringey? Or harmless? Let us know in the comments.
