Apart from being a super successful athlete and a celebrated businessman, Shaquille O’Neal is also a doting father to six kids. Most of his children have followed in his footsteps of being a basketball player. His son Shareef O’Neal has already entered the NBA G-League, while others, including Me’arah, are looking to follow suit. 17-year-old Me’arah stunned fans after she posted some pictures on her Instagram on the special occasion of Mother’s Day, proving she is truly the daughter of the 7ft NBA icon.
Shaquille O’Neal is one of those rare human specimens who were agile despite being 7ft tall. Unsurprisingly, he has heavily influenced his kids’ physical stature, as most of them have gone through a growth spurt.

Me’arah O’Neal has been making waves in the basketball community over the past few years. She currently features for the Crossroads School in Santa Monica, California. She’s often in the news for displaying her flamboyant basketball skills.
On Sunday, the 17-year-old uploaded a story on Instagram, paying tribute to her mother, Shaunie Henderson, on the occasion of Mother’s Day. They can be seen standing together and it seemed like Me’arah’s physique is heavily influenced by her gigantic father. O’Neal was seen towering over her mother in the social media post. It was reported that Shaq’s daughter stood at 6’4 tall when she was just fifteen years of age. Her massive stature has helped her to dominate the paint on the basketball court. Just like Shaq, she features as a Center for her teams.
Me’arah has often posted pictures on Instagram that show people just how tall she is. Over a year ago, she uploaded a post with her parents and captioned it, “iloveyou” with a red heart emoji. However, fans were taken aback due to her tall stature.
Me’arah O’Neal’s dominance on the court has caught the eye of many universities as the youngster received several scholarship offers from some of the major universities.

It was reported that the 17-year-old received a scholarship offer from the prestigious UCLA a few months back. But quite recently, she received a scholarship offer from her dad’s alma mater, Louisiana State University. The LSU Tigers recently won the NCAA Championship this year.
Shaquille O’Neal featured for LSU back in the 1990s and got his name etched in the Athletics Hall of Fame. Her older brother Shareef O’Neal, before playing in the NBA G-League, featured for the men’s team of LSU. It remains to be seen if Me’arah will carry on her family legacy at LSU or will carve her own path. It’ll be interesting to watch how Me’arah’s career pans out in the upcoming years. While most of his kids have taken up basketball as their career, another son of the 4x NBA champion has followed his father in a different field.
