While Los Angeles Lakers superstar LeBron James has posed a challenge to MJ’s throne, the majority of the audience still sees the Chicago Bulls legend as the greatest player of all time.
With that in mind, Angel Reese, currently playing for the Chicago Sky in the WNBA, might share the sentiment. Despite playing for a Chicago team, Reese considers LA Lakers legend Shaquille O’Neal as her GOAT.
“Of all time? Oh, my God. I’mma say Shaq,” Reese said.
Undoubtedly, O’Neal is one of the most dominant players in history with an impressive resume. However, not many consider the Big Aristotle in the GOAT debate, even though they should.
As for Reese, her choice is understandable given her close relationship with the legendary center.
