Shaquille O’Neal of the Los Angeles Lakers has landed in Dallas and this time as a homeowner according to a Fan Nation article from July 2. They say,
“Near the end of his brilliant NBA career, the legend Shaquille O’Neal joined Dallas Mavs owner Mark Cuban in flirting with the idea of Shaq signing with Dallas.
Well, we’ve finally got him – though at 50, he’ll no longer be able to contribute as a player to the Luka Doncic- led Mavs.
So the Hall of Famer will have to contribute as a DFW citizen.
Shaq has acquired a home in Carrollton, the star of sports and stage and screen having recently purchased his new home here, according to Dirt.”
The grand mansion of Shaq is on a different level even if it’s smaller than his past home as it will comprise a 5,200 square feet with multiple amenities according to a New York Post article from June 24. They say,
“Spanning over 5,200 square feet, features include a library with a dramatic tiered ceiling, a wall of built-in shelves, and a wood-burning fireplace. The kitchen and breakfast room opens out to the great room that offers soaring ceilings, a gas fireplace and a wall of windows overlooking the pool.
The primary suite features a sitting area with a spa-like bathroom, according the listing.
But to compare, his Orlando place, which he finally sold after three years on the market, spanned a colossal 31,000 square feet and had 12 bedrooms and 11 bathrooms. It even came with a full-sized basketball court with a 6,000 square-foot “Shaq Center” with bleachers.”
But it doesn’t stop there as his new mansion will also have a huge swimming pool complemented by a rock waterfall and a spa.
