Shaquille O’Neal invented a new dance craze and even Charles Barkley is doing it

Shaquille O’Neal loves to dance. He did a lot of it during his NBA career, including a memorable All-Star dance off with LeBron James and Dwight Howard. He may be retired from the NBA now, but that doesn’t mean he’s stopped dancing. He even came up with a new dance that he’s calling the gorilla dab.

While talking about the contest to give away $1,000, Shaq decided to put his moves on display on Inside the NBA.

Watching a 7’1 human do that on national TV would have been entertaining enough. But it got better. Oh it got much better. See, Shaq is actually a pretty good dancer. Charles Barkley? Well, you decide.

There may have only been two NBA games on Tuesday, but Shaq and Chuck made up for the void with this.
