Summary
At seven-foot-one and more than three hundred pounds, Shaquille O’Neal was impossible to ignore. As an athlete he shattered backboards and expectations, winning four NBA championships, forming a combustible partnerships alongside Penny Hardaway, Kobe Bryant and Dwyane Wade, and becoming one of the most dominant basketball players the world has ever seen.
But basketball was only one arena for a man determined to be everywhere at once. Shaq became a platinum-selling rapper, movie star, pitchman, entrepreneur, television personality, DJ, and one of the most recognizable people on the planet.
In this definitive biography, Timothy Bella tells the full story of Shaquille O’Neal, from an itinerant childhood and an uneasy relationship with a demanding stepfather, through his breathtaking rise at LSU and his transformation into an NBA and pop-culture phenomenon. Drawing on extensive reporting and revealing interviews with family members, teammates, coaches, rivals, executives, journalists, and friends, Bella goes behind the mythology to reveal an immensely gifted, complicated man driven by ambition, loyalty, insecurity, loss, humor, and an almost inexhaustible desire for approval.
