NBA legend Shaquille O’Neal offered a brutal response to an influencer, who poked fun at him over a bizarre Sophie Rain rumor.
Rain, who is an OnlyFans star, shocked fans last week after posting a picture of herself, sitting on O’Neal’s lap. The photo was taken as the 21-year-old celebrated her birthday during a Las Vegas night out.
The image predictably went viral, with people starting to speculate about a potential romantic relationship between the two.
Influencer Noeh Glenn Carter shared his thoughts on the situation with his 300,000 plus followers.
The content creator suggested that the three-decade age difference between the pair gave him a ‘little uncomfy feeling’. He also poked fun at the fact that O’Neal, aged 53, showed up to a 21-year-old’s birthday.

It wasn’t long before the video got back to Shaq, who hit back in trademark fashion.
Commenting on the video, the basketball legend said: “I don’t [date] that young but I will date your mom and give u a brother.”
He added: “I was djing at encore beach club she came to my party dummy stop tryna create rumors don’t make me slap you dude.”
Carter responded to Shaq in a follow-up video, saying: “Now Shaq, I really don’t want you to slap me because you would obliterate me.”
“I apologize Shaq,” he added. “I don’t want that smoke.”
To add to the fun, Carter also shared a video of his mom reacting to the comment, laughing off Shaq’s hilarious proposal.
