Steph Thanks Shaq For Refusing To Add Him To Shaqtin’ A Fool Because He’s His Favorite Player
With a clear path in front of him, Stephen Curry wanted to show the world a dunk they’ve never seen from him. Unfortunately for him, it went completely wrong.
Curry wound up hitting the deck, and getting up only to airball a three. Everybody thought that this would definitely win this past week’s Shaqtin’ A Fool, as it was considered to be one of the favorites for the whole season. But then, during the latest Shaqtin’ episode, everyone was surprised that the scene wasn’t even featured.
During the show, Shaq even explained why he didn’t feature the fail. He didn’t put it in because Stephen Curry is his favorite player:
“He’s my favorite player. I’m not doing it,”
Curry himself obviously appreciated it and had a special ‘thank you’ message for O’Neal.
“Hey Shaq, I appreciate you looking out for me, man. I know I got a Shaqtin’ A Fool-worthy moment, but you said I was your favorite player in the league and I appreciate that support for not having me on it. My whole goal when I was in the fast break on the open court was try to do what you did in The Meadowlands bringing the backboard down, but obviously it didn’t work out…
I appreciate you looking out for me.”
