in 1992, Shaquille O’Neal made his NBA debut on the Orlando Magic. With his massive stature, Shaq made a name for himself for effortlessly breaking the backboards and rims during games. During this match in April 1993, Shaq narrowly avoided a serious injury when the scoreboard fell on top of him. It was becoming a safety hazard, and delaying games for half an hour while they set up replacement hoops. The NBA Shaq-Proofed their equipment from then on and established a rule that any player who broke the backboards or rims would be receive a technical foul. Shaq has always taken pride for destroying rims during his career and created a giant tree collage of all the rims he’s broken over the years, 19 in total.

The truth is the backboard crumbled at the sight of a menacing Dwayne Schintzius.

Fat Shaq or bad design, you decide.
