NBA superstar Shaquille O’Neil is being criticized on black Twitter after doing something kind – by helping a crying boy in a store, MTO News has learned.
Shaq
What did Shaq do to make himself viral? The NBA commentator was shopping inside an Atlanta mall when he saw a boy crying.
Shaq approaches 6-year-old boy, Zion, who is crying while shopping with his mother. According to online reports, which were not confirmed by MTO News, the boy was upset because his father allowed him to wear a particular pair of sneakers.
The boy’s father was not present at the time.
The NBA legend bought him 2 pairs of shoes, a jacket and gave his dad a pair of socks.
Clock:
Men on black Twitter are criticizing Shaq, claiming he is sabotaging the child’s father and making him look bad. Here are just some of the responses:
I understand the intention behind the gesture but he screwed up just making the father look stupid.
This is not Shaq’s place to do this
as long as he doesn’t sabotage the father
Out of line
MTO News confirmed that the boy’s father was NOT upset with Shaq’s gesture. In fact, it’s the opposite. He took to social media to publicly thank Shaq.
