Shaquille O’Neal had his No. 32 jersey retired by the Miami Heat on Thursday. The Big Diesel helped the Heat win the 2006 NBA Championship, and the 2016 Hall of Fame inductee was proud to be at American Airlines Arena in front of the fans.
Plus, he got gifts!
One of the things the Heat gave to Shaq -- thanks in part to his nickname “Diesel” -- was a semi-truck that his mom, Lucille, drove onto the court.
No, really:

Well, I guess it’s a smaller version. It’s less of a semi truck and more of a semi-semi truck.
Who doesn’t want a Power Wheels with your own face on it?
