Shaq Wears Wig on NBA on TNT To Cover Up Embarrassing Head Injury

Shaq is a large man, and sometimes his enormous size can lead to accidents.

His gigantic stature finally came back to bite the NBA Hall of Famer. It also led to a hilarious moment on “Inside the NBA.”

O’Neal drew questions almost immediately after appearing on the program wearing a curly black wig. Host Ernie Johnson set O’Neal up perfectly, saying, “I know there’s got to be a story behind this.”

O’Neal explained:

The Big Diesel admitted he walked into a sign and scraped his head.

O’Neal then removed the wig to reveal two large bandages on his head.

Obviously the injury wasn’t too serious.

Get well soon big fella.
