The LA Lakers Icon Shaquille O'Neal gives a reality check to Jusuf Nurkic

The situation surrounding Draymond Green has been complicated from many fronts, as the Golden State Warriors star even was contemplating retirement, something that NBA commissioner Adam Silver stopped the player from doing.

Green also revealed that LeBron James called him and showed him his support. Jusuf Nurkic who received the hit from Green that made the NBA suspended indefinitely, recently took X to respond to the Lakers icon Shaquille O'Neal after the statements coming from the dominant big man.

Shaq calls Jusuf Nurkic ‘soft’ for thinking about pressing charges on Draymond Green: “You’re going to ruin what I created in the big man alliance…This is something I would tell you to your face if I saw you. You can’t press charges, you just gotta get your big a** up and hit somebody back. How about that? With your big soft a**”

Nurkic responded to Shaq to say that the supposed statement was just fake news: "Lmao first I never said that!! People be making sh*t up lol. Shaqilovic I'm not from here, I'm not losing money, and nobody fighting in this NBA..."

Nurkic wasn't sour even the night he got hit by Green

Nurkić had a memorable first reaction to the incident postgame after it happened. “What’s going on with him, I don’t know,” Nurkić said. “Personally, I feel like that brother needs help. I’m glad he didn’t try to choke me.”
