Shaquille O’Neal appears somewhat different on TNT right now. The large man had to get his hair done, so he was a little late to Studio J. Despite arriving late for work, he shocked his coworkers with his most recent “emo” hairdo. Amid all the hoopla around his pick, Diesel went on to give his opinion of the most recent choice, which involved losing a bet.

Shaquille O’Neal looked like an emo “man unit” in his wine-colored velour outfit, which made an added fashion statement. He was unable to live it down due to his colleagues. He loved his long hair, layered and finished with texture. The side-swept bangs of this hairstyle partially hid his eyes.

My boy sliced hook me up with a dude that does man units in Atlanta. It didn't turn out the way it looked. I looked good, I looked good on my mamma.

When the TNT Tuesday show returned for the halftime report, it was Adam Lefkoe who made the announcement. He brought the news that O’Neal had lost the bet and needed a trip to the salon.

Naturally, the 4x champion did not reveal the nature of the bet. But it served as a good reminder of the insane lengths Shaq had to go for losing a bet.

Fans react to Shaquille O’Neal’s “Emo Jimmy” hairstyle

Shaquille O’Neal, an NBA legend and broadcaster, revealed he had lost a bet on Tuesday, prompting him to don a humorous new emo look. On media day, O’Neal was wearing a wig that mimicked the viral appearance of Miami Heat forward Jimmy Butler, who was snapping photos as his alter ego, “Emo Jimmy.” People are now obsessed with Shaq’s new hairdo.

Fans are also pointing out his betting habit which is making him do such things. Although everyone knows how O’Neal does these things casually. Here are some of the hilarious reactions on the internet:

One such incident happened in December 2021, when the player who was voted the NBA’s most valuable player, covered up the bandages on top of his head with a curly wig. He first tried to fabricate the reason for the incident during that period. He eventually came clean and explained how he had suffered a brain injury as a result of an exit sign.
