NBA legend Shaquille O’Neal recently stirred controversy by asserting that Bol Bol possesses the same skill set as San Antonio Spurs’ rookie sensation Victor Wembanyama, with one major caveat – laziness.
In a candid statement on The Big Podcast with Shaq, O’Neal confidently stated, “Bol Bol can do everything Wemby can do and even a little better: dribble behind the back, shoot the three, nice handle, the floater game. He’s just lazy.”
O’Neal’s remarks shed light on Bol’s untapped potential and the hindrance of his perceived lack of work ethic.
Comparatively, Wembanyama has been showcasing stellar performances, averaging 20.4 points, 10.1 rebounds, 3.2 blocks, and 2.9 assists in just 28.5 minutes per game this season.
In contrast, Bol, currently playing for the Phoenix Suns, has seen limited action, participating in only 12 games and averaging 3.4 points and 2.3 rebounds in a mere 7.2 minutes per game this season.
