Shaquille O’Neal hopped online to threaten Robert Griffin III over several offensive posts aimed at WNBA star Angel Reese.
The NBA Hall of Famer is tired of Griffin targeting the female athlete, especially in the alleged rivalry between Reese and Caitlin Clark.
Griffin recently reposted a racist edit of Reese’s NBA 2K26 cover, depicting her as a monkey.
“RGIII, tweet another monkey post about my girl Angel Reese and I’m gonna punch you in your f–king face. K. It’s enough. Like, I don’t usually do stuff like this but stop it, bro,” Shaq said.
“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–king stop it. That’s the last time. K. Thank you.”

He continued, “That’s not real hate. You look around at what’s going on in this real country, that’s hate. This is sports, I’m not supposed to like you. It’s a shame that all the stuff you did in your life, you’re gonna be remembered for your podcast. That should tell you you’re not that f–king great. I don’t want to be remembered for Shaq’s big podcast. I do not. Like leave those girls alone. You already spoke on it. Let it go. So what? He hates her. So f–king what? I hate you now for messing with her. Now what? Say something about me.
Shaq added that he has had to personally reassure Reese after receiving all of the unnecessary hate, but warns Griffin that a fight with Reese means a fight with him, too.
“Like I don’t mind you doing your job, but don’t pick on that little girl. Cause guess what? I’m her protector. Now pick on me. You pick on me, I’m gonna punch you in your f—ing face.”
