[TMZ] Exclusive: Shaquille O’Neal underwent hip surgery over the weekend. Sources says there is no set time frame for return, but Shaq remains hopeful for April 16th as a tentative date for when he could be active again.



>The NBA legend simply needed to fix a nagging injury, and he’s now doing OK.

> It’s unclear when Shaq will return to his TV gig — our sources say there’s no set time frame — but in discussing the upcoming procedure earlier this month on his podcast, “The Big Podcast With Shaq,” he seemed to say he had April 16 in mind for when he could be active again.

Could Shaq return in time for the playoffs?

  1. Can’t wait to see Chuck roast him for getting hip surgery at 51.

  2. Elijahc513

  3. mefor_president

    Can someone share the youtube link where they show shaq and chucks sponserships and crew roasts shaq for having too many brands

    Guys are soft these days. Back in my day guys did shows 5 nights a week and didn’t cry about their hips. And it was much more physical back then too.

  5. Stock_Perspective_99

    Why he holding his phone on anestesia lol. People really addicted these days

  6. Machiniac

    I hear Shaq had a 95-pound mole taken off his ass.

  7. rusinga_island

    There’s a realistic possibility that Shaq now has the largest artificial hip joint in history. Add it to the resume!

  8. Radguy100

    Damn shaq doing absolutely everything to avoid getting served

  9. ManInBlack829

    That hip is probably the size of an artificial hip for a bull

  10. He got hurt on company time, so he’ll recover on company time.

  11. ThunderClown101

    How does this affect his free agency this summer?

    Will any team still offer him the max?

  12. palehorse69

    Hopefully this isn’t the beginning of the decline.

  13. Hope he’s doing better. Chuck should lift his spirits with some San Antonio jokes

  14. souttous

    Damn hip surgery is no joke. What kind of injury did he have?

  15. RedditAdminsGulpCum

    Hip surgery for a giant has to be nerve wracking. Speedy recovery 🙏🏾

  16. rickieday

    Shaq going to desperate measures to avoid getting stuck with Lefkoe, Parker, and Crawford for the next few weeks without Ernie, Kenny and Chuck.

  17. PaKyuBai

    He’d be back on the court before Zion does

  18. pootie-shoe

    Shaq messed up. Gonna get served those papers now unless he’s got armed guards on the outside

  19. DEEZLE13

    Adam Lefkoe really made this man break his hip just to get away

  20. gonzagylot00

    Hip surgery is no joke for anyone, it doesn’t always take. For a big guy like Shaq it’s probably even harder. I hope Shaq gets better soon!

  21. 808sandheartburn_

    You know Shaq posing like that for TMZ 😂😂bro so dramatic

  22. Actually-Gay-NBA-Fan

    Shaq probably leaked this to TMZ because he probably knew they would pay him for the scoop. Lol

  23. Super_Goomba64

    Fake story to cover up his Crypto scam

  24. KnoxsFniteSuit

    Those Christmas trees got the last laugh

  25. ogeezyuno

    That Christmas tree took him out he..hope he has a solid recovery

  26. abcdef-G

    Ngl, seeing “[TMZ] Exclusive: Shaq…” made me nervous for a second.

  27. MoDirtyBass

    Hes gonna need a few g league halftimes to get back into game shape.

  28. StubbornKindOfFellow

    Active again? Shaq hasn’t been active since about 3 years before he retired.

  29. FloppyMoronDog

    He could have done this over the summer… why does he get surgery during the season (insert Shaq response)

  30. TackoFallFanClub

    That’s good. The Warriors could use him in the post.
