NBA legend, Shaquille O’Neal has sparked concern after he posted a photograph of himself in a hospital bed.
It’s unclear why O’Neal is in the hospital but TMZ is reporting that O’Neal underwent hip surgery over the weekend to repair a ‘nagging injury,’ but that he’s now doing fine.
The 51-year-old posted the picture of himself on Twitter along with the caption: ‘I’m always watching @TurnerSportsEJ and @Candace_Parker miss y’all.’

‘U good big man?’ asked Hibbert.
