This Is Shaq's Proudest Sporting Moment
In 2016, Shaquille O'Neal appeared on Running Wild with Bear Grylls, where the NBA legend shared personal stories while enduring the wilderness. Among the highlights of their conversation was a question about Shaq’s proudest sporting moment. Surprisingly, instead of recalling one of his four NBA championships or MVP accolades, Shaq pointed to a specific play during Game 7 of the 2000 Western Conference Finals between the Los Angeles Lakers and Portland Trail Blazers.
The moment he referenced is etched into NBA history as one of the most iconic plays of his career. With the Lakers trailing by double digits in the fourth quarter, they mounted a dramatic comeback. Late in the game, Kobe Bryant drove towards the basket, attracting multiple defenders, before lofting a perfect alley-oop pass to Shaq, who finished with a powerful dunk. The image of Shaq running down the court, pointing skyward in celebration, became a defining symbol of their eventual championship run.
That alley-oop didn’t just seal the game, it cemented the growing partnership between Kobe and Shaq, a duo that would dominate the early 2000s NBA landscape. Shaq’s decision to highlight this moment on Running Wild speaks volumes about its significance, not just in the Lakers’ success, but in Shaq's career as a whole. It marked the turning point for the Lakers' dynasty, and for Shaq, it represented teamwork, resilience, and a thrilling comeback victory.
It's a moment that remains special to both Shaq and Lakers fans, encapsulating the height of his athletic career.
