Shaq is letting his teenage son dunk on him to teach a valuable lesson

Shaquille O'Neal is a big man. He's much larger than just about every college basketball player in the country. This is relevant because his son, Shareef is preparing to become a big-time Division I college hoops star. 

To help his son prepare for larger defenders than he's currently facing, Shaq let Shareef dunk on him several times. After all, that's what he'll be doing to players at the next level in a few years.

O'Neal is a top-100 recruit for the class of 2018 and is sure to go to a powerhouse university like Kentucky, Duke or USC, the last of which he already has an offer from. Shaq wants his son to "lean towards Kentucky," which Shareef revealed recently.
