Shaquille O’Neal threatens to punch RG III for posts about Angel Reese

RG III posted about how people should not be racist towards Reese. He then reshared a photo of Reese depicted as a monkey on the cover of the upcoming NBA 2K game. This caused backlash as fans mentioned he did not have to reshare the photo to get his point across.

This wasn’t all however. In his post, RG III went on to add that he is “in contact with some people in Reese’s inner circle who told him Reese has grown to hate Caitlin Clark.”

This shows that RG III is ultimately trying to keep the narrative alive that Reese hates Clark, making fans believe his coming to Reese’s “defense” was not genuine.

Reese seemingly responded to RG III with her own post, with the message: “lying on this app when everybody know the first and last name of everybody in my circle for clout is nastyyyy work.”

Reese’s mother, Angel Webb Reese, also posted a message to RG III, defending her daughter.

“Man stop with the [cap]. My daughter’s ‘circle’ is so small & tight so I’d be interested 2 know who called U … Whomever U say ‘called’ U is not in her circle 2 speak on her feelings towards a media/fandom made up beef. Just stay on that side bc the doors are closed over here.”

Shaquille O’Neal’s threat to RG III

Now, let’s dive back to Shaquille O’Neal. Shaq has a friendship with Reese, one that began when Reese was in college. She attended LSU, the same school Shaq attended.

Shaq recently made an appearance on the Off the Record podcast, where he called out RG III, threatening him if he posts anything racist about Reese again.

“RGIII, tweet another monkey post about my girl Angel Reese and I’m gonna punch you in your f***ing face,” Shaq said. “It’s enough. Like, I don’t usually do stuff like this but stop it, bro. You got your job, you got your podcast, leave my Angel Reese alone. I’m the one calling her and telling her not to respond, f***ing stop it. That’s the last time. Thank you.”

RG III would be wise not to cross Shaq, as The Big Diesel is a man of his word. Also, he needs to quit all the hate on Reese and stop trying to divide fans of Reese and Clark.

Let fans decide who they support based on how each player performs. More importantly, RG III needs to stop making racially charged remarks and posts. It’s uncalled for, and people like Shaq won’t tolerate it any longer.
