NBA legend Shaquille O’Neal joined Brandon ‘Scoop B’ Robinson on the Scoop B Radio Podcast. The four-time NBA champion was asked to compare some of the basketball greats he played with during his career.

After initially refusing to make comparisons, Shaq listed some interesting similarities between some basketball legends. He indirectly said Kobe Bryant is on the par with Michael Jordan and that LeBron James is both of them combined.

Per Brandon ‘Scoop B’ Robinson of Heavy:

“Penny was a young Magic Johnson and I was a young Kareem. Kobe was a young Michael Jordan before he became Michael Jordan. And LeBron is both of them combined. And D-Wade was Kobe when he was coming into his own. I’ll just put it like that.”
