    Haha they thought even 285 was a lot. Shaq was bigger than everyone in the nba even when he was a sophomore in college

  2. itwas20yearsago2day

    Shaq went from 415 to 325 in one season?

    Am I wrong if I don’t believe him?

  3. Beavshak

    How, at 415, does someone’s knees not blow the fuck up.

  4. Arooooooooooooooo

    The fact that Shaq played 50K minutes at 300-400 lbs is insane.

  5. Life_Ad_9518

    Yea I don’t believe the weights of NBA bigs ; there’s no way Jokic doesn’t way 300lbs at 7ft. And there’s no way Boogie wasn’t 300.

  6. yOw_indahOuse

    Honestly, I always thought he was heavier than his listed weight in the 3peat, by the third one he was huuuuuuge.

  7. purplebuffalo55

    Sounds like Zion might actually be if shaq and Chuck had a baby. Weight issues run in the family

  8. InterestingArm3750

    Indicate? He flat out says it lol

  9. southpawsouthpaw

    Shaq is such a Fat

    If anyone wants to be a Fat, they should aspire to be like Shaq honestly

  10. KingNephew

    We’ll never see another Shaq ever again.

  11. some-guy-someone

    I believe it… 315 is a huge human, but Shaq is other level big. I know overweight dudes that are 6’5 and 300lbs. Shaq had to be significantly heavier than that.

  12. NoviDon07

    I was thinking 350 and i thought that was astonishing… Shaq is truly a one of one freak of nature 😬

  13. GayForJamie

    I fucking knew it! I always told people he was 400 at the end of the threepeat.

    He was listed at like 295 his rookie year and he was obviously at least a hundred more than that by 2003.

  14. maremmacharly

    I never believed it to be fair. My brother has roughly the same build, is significantly shorter and already over 315.

    I am a bit skinnier and only 6’5 but still push 270. So a bit sceptical on prime shaq being 315.

  15. Playbookof3li

    If you look at world strongest men, Thor and Brian Shaw are both 6’9 and were at 400. It’s not a stretch that Shaq as large as he was at 7’2 was 400

  16. thebobbyshaw33

    Yeah I don’t believe for one second he ever got anywhere near 415, that’s ridiculous…370 max

  17. Typical-Gold-29

    415 playing o-line is crazy let alone running the court in nba games.

  18. DescriptionHappy1448

    I’d like to see Draymond Green or Looney try to guard the 3peat Shaq

  19. CabbageStockExchange

    What an absolute unit holy fuck.

  20. thumbtwiddlerguy

    I’ve been telling people for years that there is zero chance this NBA players are at their listed weight .. yall think Giannis is 240? KD is listed at 240 .. Giannis is pushing 280.

  21. woodenbike1234

    The Shaq story is wild, but it’s even more confusing that Tom Brady and Bob Odenkirk have a podcast???

  22. DoomdUser

    I’ve been saying this for years, but it’s awesome to hear him finally admit it. His final weight is listed at 325, which is an absolute fucking joke if you see what he looked like when he was on the Celtics. If he was 415 in LA, when he still also had a lot of muscle tone, he must have been upwards of 475 on the Celtics.

    An absolute freak of a human to be able to play professional basketball at that size, even if it wasn’t very good.

  23. GoNumber22

    he’s obviously lying tho. no shot he “had a good summer” and gained 40 lbs (like, 12% additional body mass)

    and then LOST 90 lbs in a season in miami? those are medically dangerous levels of weight gain and loss, especially for someone that huge. his knees would have just given up

  24. SlamDunkleyKong

    Maybe he weighed that much but I can also see Shaq being full of shit because he tends to lie about a lot of stuff from his career.

  25. TripleSingleHOF

    Yeah, I think people assumed he was at least 375 lbs by the end of the 3-peat.

    But 415 pounds is pretty crazy.

  26. YpsitheFlintsider

    I feel like that number keeps getting bigger every time he talks about it. I think he said 375 before
