There was one touching moment when Shaq got emotional while talking about the recent unveiling of late NBA superstar Kobe Bryant‘s new statue.
Shaq said the ceremony was very emotional, wishing Kobe was there to see the statue himself and give a speech. As you know, Kobe was killed in a 2020 helicopter crash in Calabasas, California.
