Shaquille O’Neal is not just popular for his talents as an athlete but also becuase of things he has been doing since retirement.

One of the things that people adore about him is the fact that he has a big heart.

Shaquille O’Neal is known for his wonderful talents as an athlete.

He has made records and won many accolades throughout his tremendous career. But one thing the athlete has made news for recently has been his charitable nature. Recently, the former basketball legend walked into a Best Buy in Lafayette, Louisiana. He apparently went in to ask about the latest Samsung Galaxy Z Flip phone. One Kquoella Lewis was also at the store to buy an iPad. She noticed the tall man standing next to her and realized it was none other than the legend Shaquille O’Neal.

Lewis told O’Neal about her thoughts on the phone. Shaq then proceeded to tell the store employee, “Get two, one for me and one for her.” A Galaxy Z flip phone sell for about $1200 each. According to KLYF Lewis revealed that the phone was not even for Shaquille O’Neal because he is a fan of Apple products.

This is not the first time O’Neal was seen doing something charitable for random people. Earlier this year, he heard the story of a young boy unable to find shoes his size and decided to help him out. Young Eric Kilburn Jr. is a student at Goodrich High School. The 14-year-old has a predicament that not many people face; his feet are too big for ordinary shoes. At 14 years old, he is already 6 feet 10 inches tall and fits into a men’s size 23 shoe! But as the boy grows, the shoes only started to become tighter and tighter and his family sets on a mission to find him new shoes once again!

The teenager’s parents have exhausted all their options to find the right size shoe and hence decided to take their efforts public in hopes of getting some help or leads on shoes for their growing son!
