What happened on NBA on TNT? Chuck roasts Shaq for swatting a fly

In the recent NBA on TNT clip, O'Neal reaches to get rid of a fly on the set. Barkley, having worked with O'Neal for years, roasted him for the same. As per the 11-time NBA All-Star, it was O'Neal's fault that the fly was on the set, and asked the retired Los Angeles Lakers legend to splash water on himself. Fans seemed to find the small fly interaction hilarious, replying to the same video on social media.

Not long ago, O'Neal also made fans laugh by picking a booger on set. On NBA on TNT on Tuesday, O'Neal had a booger in his nose, something which Dwyane Wade, Candace Parker, and Adam Lefkoe pointed out. O'Neal, not surprising anyone, picked the booger on camera. Later, Lefkoe trolled O'Neal about the same, stating that it was the biggest booger he saw in his entire life, and the NBA icon's whole brain came out of his head. 

"I didn’t even know it was there. Y’all got me!" O’Neal said, laughing at himself along with everyone. "You weren’t going to tell me I had a booger on live TV?"

Candace Parker admitted that she tried to be subtle about the situation, but O'Neal did not understand her cues. “I didn’t want to tell you on live TV,” she said. Wade, on the other hand, thought he was one with the booger. He even joked about O'Neal changing from "The Big Podcast with Shaq" to "The Bigger Booger Podcast". “I’m not coming on your podcast unless you change the name,” Wade said, even putting a roll of paper towels in front of O'Neal.
