Shaquille O’Neal is one of the biggest goofballs we’ve associated with the NBA. He proved that yet again on Inside the NBA last night.

Inside the NBA has acquired a new flavour for its new Tuesday nights of late. Dwyane Wade and Candace Parker are now the headline acts for the NBA broadcasts of the day, with Shaq as the 3rd ‘expert’.
We’ve all seen how Inside the NBA is usually a show where Chuck goofs around after Kenny eggs him on. Ernie Johnson usually watches on helplessly as the trio of Kenny, Chuck and Shaq manage to create a ruckus where there’s none.
Most of Shaq’s funniest moments have to do with his Shaqtin-a-Fool compilations and his periodic ‘rings, Ernie’ statements. But these days the Lakers legend is diversifying, adding new acts to his repertoire.
One of his new schticks is to ostentatiously flirt whenever he gets the opportunity. This makes for some thoroughly watchable TV, just like Shaq’s wrestling debut last month.
Shaquille O’Neal flirts with DiDi Richards’ mom on live TV
This Tuesday’s broadcast featured D-Wade and Candace Parker pranking Shaq as the latter stole a power nap during downtime between games. It also had Shaq acting particularly horny in an unprompted manner.
The moment in question came as the Inside crew was interviewing Baylor WNBA prospect DiDi Wright. DiDi happened to call her mother in as she videoconferenced with the crew, and we must say the lady looks absolutely smashing. Take a look yourself.
“I got a new website called damn yo mama fine.”
– Shaq. 😂😂😂

Shaq couldn’t help himself as the 49-year-old hit the lady with some of his characteristic pickup lines. “I got a new website called damn yo mama fine,” he said while Richards and the rest of the crew laughed.
