NBA legend Shaquille O’Neal has recently made it very clear that he is a big fan of Minnesota Timberwolves star shooting guard Anthony Edwards.

The legendary big man has been consistently sharing videos on his Instagram stories hyping Edwards up as the NBA’s next big thing. However, it appears that Shaq is also a fan of Edwards off the court, particularly his rap skills.

On Monday, Shaq shared a clip of Edwards demonstrating his rapping ability. The video was captioned “Bro can do everything.”

Edwards has quickly become one of the NBA’s most likable and marketable young players over his first three seasons.

However, the "Big Diesel" consistently promoting Edwards to his 32.2 million Instagram followers should still go a long way toward increasing the Minnesota Timberwolves star’s popularity even more.
