On the Late Show with Stephen Colbert, Shaquille O’Neal joked that his friend Charles Buckley is going to hell after he dies.
Shaquille O’Neal is quite the popular personality within the NBA community. The four-time NBA champion is very well known not just for his skills on court, but also for his gigantic physique. Shaq played for multiple teams in the NBA. Ever since retirement, he has been involved as an analyst for the NBA. Besides Basketball, Shaw has worked in numerous films, has his own platinum rap album, and also has multiple television awards.
Currently, he works as an analyst on the show “Inside NBA” on TNT. One of his co-analysts on the show is Charles Barkley. Barkley is a close friend of Shaq, but the two are not afraid of having a go at each-other. They have an entertaining love-hate relationship between one another, neither of the Hall of Famers missing an opportunity to take a jab at the other.
Speaking on the Late Show with Stephen Colbert, Shaq was asked about what happens after death.
“Nobody knows. Heaven? (Charles) Barkley is going to hell. Heaven- yeah I’m going to heaven.”

It will be interesting to see how his co-analysts responds to this. When two people not afraid talk come up against each other, it usually is a tasty affair for the neutrals.
