Shaquille O’Neal is a man who has the utmost respect for moms across the world. After all, his mother Lucille O’Neal taught him well and still teaches him lessons to this day. So, needless to say, the man loves it when big personalities keep their mothers as part of their biggest decisions since he does it himself. And since he recently found out that Jayson Tatum does it too, he decided to send some his way on Instagram.

Jayson Tatum has been known to not use his NBA money whatsoever. Instead, he purposely lives a bit below what his means would allow, only using his endorsement money in the process. All this is a brilliant move, especially considering the fact that he is trying to build up generational wealth. This is something $400 million worth O’Neal couldn’t help but appreciate. And he recently let the world know about it on Instagram.

Take a look at the tweet below to see the screenshot of what he did.
