NBA legend, Shaquille O’Neal, 51, has stirred fears amongst his faithfuls after he posted a picture of himself in a hospital bed.
It’s unclear why O’Neal is in the hospital but TMZ is reporting that O’Neal went under the knife over the weekend to repair a ‘nagging injury,’ but that he’s now doing fine.
On Sunday evening, the ex-LA Lakers posted the picture of himself hooked up on drips on Twitter along with the caption: ‘I’m always watching @TurnerSportsEJ and @Candace_Parker miss y’all.’
The Twitter handles belong to his TNT co-hosts, Ernie Johnson and Candace Parker.
Parker responded online, writing: ‘Love ya big Fella.’ Former NBA stars Steve Smith and Roy Hibbert both shared their concern for O’Neal on Twitter.
‘U good big man?’ asked Hibbert.
‘Get well soon big fella!! Prayers going up now,’ posted one fan.
‘I hope it’s nothing serious. Wishing you a fast recovery,’ said other.
