By now, everyone knows how uncanny and straightforward NBA legend Shaquille O’Neal gets when he talks about any given topic on his podcast. If not, then the most recent segment of his The Big Podcast had it all alongside legendary boxer Mike Tyson. O’Neal did not shy away from speaking his mind, being his usual self. He spoke about many issues in and around the NBA, but the one that had everyone’s interest was his take on the recent hot couple Klay Thompson and Megan Thee Stallion.
When the question came up about the hot couple, many who were in attendance on the podcast thought that O’Neal would have some kind words for them. Instead, he did the exact opposite. O’Neal went on to claim that the relationship would last as long as only six weeks. Tyson did not know how to react to this news and kept silent. Also, the present audience on the podcast burst out with laughter.
Six weeks. The line is six weeks.

For those who are unaware and not familiar with the recent trending news, the NBA star Klay Thompson and world-famous rapper Megan Thee Stallion are official, as of last Wednesday.

Stallion and Thomson also took out some quality time to talk to the reporters about their ongoing relationship.
Both spoke to different reporters and gave their takes on each other. Megan claimed that Thomson is the nicest person she’s ever met, while on the other hand, Thomson claimed that Megan inspires everyone, and himself. In addition, Megan took the relationship up a notch when Thomson flaunted the $300,000 watch the rapper gifted him at the event.

Aside from this, Thompson will also be focusing on the upcoming 2025-26 NBA season with his side, the Dallas Mavericks.
