Fans react to Kevin Hart hilariously sneaking up on Shaquille O’Neal and punching him: “Kevin like the Black Hasbulla”

Comedian Kevin Hart and Hall of Famer Shaquille O'Neal have a pretty great relationship. A decade ago, O'Neal sat in the audience as Hart filmed his 'Seriously Funny' standup special. The set included a famous joke about how long it took O'Neal to fall, which saw Hart impersonate the NBA legend falling down.

Since then, the two have seemed to repeatedly pop up in videos together, taunting one another and making jokes at each other's expense whenever possible. With All-Star weekend coming up and the Super Bowl behind us, it's no wonder the two men are already having fun.

In a video O'Neal posted, he can be seen filming a video on his phone, before Hart walks up and slaps him on the side of the head. Naturally, the video got a bunch of hilarious reactions from fans on social media. The 'incident' took place at O'Neal's famous annual Super Bowl weekend party.

Below, you can see a compilation of some of the funniest reactions.

Kevin Hart's involvement with the All-Star Game

Kevin Hart has essentially become a staple of the All-Star weekend over the years. After winning four Celebrity All-Star Game MVPs, Hart then went on to coach Team USA against Drake in the 2016 All-Star game.

Hart famously won his final Celebrity All-Star game MVP the same year he got put on Little League World Series star Mo'ne Davis' mixtape. After the game, Hart told fans in attendance that he was officially retiring from participating in the event.

"That little girl embarrassed me on live television," Hart said. "It's only going to get worse if I keep going back. I don't want to see what's going to happen next."

So far, no word is out on whether or not Hart will play a role in this year's All-Star Weekend. With Shaquille O'Neal surely making several appearances throughout the course of the festivities, Hart could very well pop up for another surprise attack.

Kevin Hart in NBA headlines late last year

Back in October, Kevin Hart was making NBA headlines after an episode of his "Cold As Balls" podcast. The series, which features Hart and professional athletes taking ice baths together, saw outspoken guard Patrick Beverley join as a guest.

Over the course of the episode, Hart mentioned the fact that he believes Kyle Lowry to be one of the best defensive guards in the NBA. That didn't sit too well with Beverley, who quickly quipped back that Hart only felt that way because the pair are from Philadelphia.

Beverley, of course, holds the distinction of being named to three NBA All-Defensive teams, whereas Lowry hasn't been named to a single one. While the Miami Heat have definitely had to fight considerably this season, Lowry's abilities on defense are considered by many to be above-average.
