Shaquille O’Neal is known for making headlines and entertaining fans. He has recently found himself at the center of attention once again. A social media account named ‘Daily Loud’ on ‘My Mixtapez’ shared posted some photos of Shaq with a girl in a bikini. Among these images were intimate shots shared between Shaq and the woman. It looked like Shaq was enjoying himself on a vacation.

“52-year-old Shaquille O’Neal spotted travelling with his 21-year-old girlfriend in Spain.” Daily Loud captioned the posts on X (formerly Twitter).

However, the community post on X revealed the truth behind the pictures, and it turns out that the leaked photos of Shaq and the girl were from 2019, and there was never any confirmation that the girl was indeed Shaquille’s girlfriend. The account owner who posted the rumor seemed to benefit from it as the post garnered 16.3 million views in just 24 hours.

“This photo is from 2019, when Shaq was 47. It was during his time in Spain when he was DJing at Foreverland. That female was never confirmed to be his girlfriend as well.” the community post read.

The woman in the images has been identified as Danielle Dilworth, a 27-year-old model who has been seen traveling with the Big Diesel at several locations.

“The Big Diesel” is considered one of the most entertaining personalities in the history of the NBA. Despite his impressive career as a player, he is also known for his analytical skills. He is often invited to podcasts to share his opinions on current events in the league.

Luka Doncic ‘destroys’ the Mavs on his return. Gets standing ovation and shows love to Mark Cuban

Luka Doncic hits 45 points in his first game in Dallas since being traded to the Los Angeles.

It’s rare for a home crowd to cheer the visiting team, but Luka Doncic’s return to Dallas was no ordinary night.

Just days before February’s trade deadline, the Mavericks shocked the NBA by sending their 26-year-old superstar to the Lakers—a move that outraged fans and sparked backlash toward GM Nico Harrison.

On Wednesday, Doncic played his first game back in Dallas since the trade. The arena was filled with fans in both his old Mavs and new Lakers jerseys, many chanting “Fire Nico” in protest.

Despite the emotion in the air, Doncic delivered a dominant performance, scoring a game-high 45 points to lead the Lakers to a 112-97 win. It was a powerful return for one of the league’s brightest stars—and a night Dallas won’t soon forget

The Mavericks pay tribute to Luka Dončić

While the Mavericks’ decision to trade Luka Doncic remains heavily criticized, they handled his return to Dallas with undeniable grace. The organization made sure his first game back as a Laker was met with respect and appreciation.

Every seat in the arena was draped with a T-shirt reading “Hvala za vse,” which translates from Slovenian to “thank you for everything.” It was a thoughtful nod to Doncic’s heritage and impact on the franchise.

Before tip-off, during the starting lineup announcements, the Mavericks played a tribute video showcasing some of Doncic’s most iconic moments in a Dallas jersey. The emotional gesture clearly resonated—moving Doncic to tears in front of the crowd that once called him their own.

Luka Doncic ‘DESTROYS’ his old team

Luka delivered a dazzling performance against his former team, putting up 45 points on 16-of-28 shooting, including 7-of-10 from beyond the arc. He also added 8 rebounds, 6 assists, and 4 steals in a game that showed exactly why he’s one of the best in the league.

From the opening tip, Doncic was locked in. By halftime, Doncic had racked up 31 points on 11-of-16 shooting in just 19 minutes—marking the 10th time in his career he’s scored 30 or more in a single half.

Though his scoring slowed in the second half, he continued to lead effectively, securing both a Lakers win and an unforgettable showing for the fans in Dallas.
