Shaq uses Warriors' Steph Curry injury to make tortured product plug

Golden State Warriors guard Stephen Curry, left, talks to Shaquille O’Neal during the NBA All-Star game in San Francisco on Feb. 16, 2025.

NBA analyst and Hall of Famer Shaquille O’Neal decided that the best time to plug one of the many products he’s a spokesman for was during a discussion about Steph Curry’s hamstring injury.

The injury that the Warriors star sustained during the second quarter of Tuesday’s playoff game was the focal point of the “Inside the NBA” halftime show. O’Neal, like any basketball fan, bemoaned the development because Curry had been moving well through a Timberwolves defense that was much less physical than what the Rockets threw at him in the first round.
