Shaquille O’Neal Reveals Kobe Bryant Shrine He Built In His Living Room

On January 26, when Kobe Bryant and his daughter Gianna were among the nine people on board the helicopter that crashed and left no survivors in Calabasas, California, Shaquille O’Neal lost one of his best friends. 

Even though Shaquille O’Neal and Kobe Bryant went through a couple of fights, in which certain things were said, they never lost respect for one another. After their active playing careers had come to an end, the two rekindled their relationship and had been friends ever since.

During an interview with Entertainment Tonight, Shaq now revealed that he build a Kobe shrine in his living room, in order to think about him and Gianna every day.

“I actually got a shrine in my house that I put up. See the shrine I put up in my living room? So I definitely think about them every day and the world is doing a great job of keeping them alive.”
