In a video by Pullwax, Shaquille O’Neal was gifted a signed McDonald’s All-American of his daughter Me’Arah. Despite even joking on giving a “how to sign autographs” lesson, Shaq was obviously emotional in the video as he appreciated the signed card of his daughter.

Me’Arah O’Neal has been out in the past years making her mark in basketball and following in the footsteps of her father Shaq. She played high school basketball at Crossroads School in Santa Monica, California, where she showcased her skills as a versatile player. Standing at 6’4″, she excelled in scoring, rebounding, and shot-blocking, earning recognition as a promising talent.
Currently, Me’Arah is a freshman guard for the Florida Gators in the 2024-25 season. While still early in her college career, she has shown potential with her contributions on the court.
Shaq, while remaining supportive, has expressed that he has let daughter Me’Arah in her decision to commit to the Florida Gators for college. Being in the legend that he is in the sport Shaq naturally had a piece of advice for her daughter as she embarked on a new chapter of her basketball career.
“What I did tell her is, ‘Go where you’re needed, not where you’re wanted,” Shaq said back then.”Because if you go where you’re wanted and they got other people like you, may take a while.’ I want [my kids] to have their own journey, have their own experience.”
Shaquille O’Neal Predicts GSW Fate
While fans of the Golden State Warriors celebrate the post-trade deadline roster of the Bay Area team, with Jimmy Butler coming all the way from Miami, Shaquille O’Neal just dropped a bold prediction on what would be the fate of the Warriors.
It’s been a good few weeks for any Warriors fan. They are currently 7-1 with Jimmy Butler, and Steph Curry just dropped a game with 56 points, shooting 16-for-25, including 12-of-19 from 3. It’s no wonder that Draymond Green had been so confident and predicted a championship for the Warriors. However, Shaw is not impressed at all.
In a recent edition of Inside the NBA, he dropped a prediction that may raise the eyebrows of any Warriors fan.
“I’m gonna go on the record,” Shaq said. “They will not be in the play-in situation. Guarantee it.”
Shaquille O’Neal has never publicly identified as a Golden State Warriors fan, though he has, in the past, praised the team and even predicted its victories.
