“Have You Tried the Shaq Sauce?!” Shaquille O’Neal Found a Hilarious Way to Avoid Making Free Throws on “Hot Ones”
Shaquille O’Neal is living life one side mission at a time: a lot of meme-worthy material came out during his episode with the Hot Ones.
Even non-viewers and fans of the show know bits of Shaq from his screen time on “Hot.Lots of expressions, lots of beads of sweat and giant lips crushing little wings smeared with the hottest sauces known to man. An acid reflux-inducing episode was made funny, because of Shaq.
One of the best moments came when Sean asked Shaq if he remembered going 0-for-11 on free throws in a game. Almost incredulous, Diesel thought he was listening to things in a state of chili-driven delirium.
But when Sean brings up the actual game and date, he casually says, “Oh, the year I won my championship?”
When the host asks Shaq to play a 1-on-1 free throw contest, he cleverly tries to get away by challenging Sean to a “spur of the moment” challenge. He was willing to sacrifice two holes, one for entry and one for exit, to avoid going to the line.
He mixed all the sauces in front of him and called them Shaq sauce.
Imagine hating something so much that you’d rather have your butt on fire than make one.

Shaquille O’Neal hates taking free throws, even more than complimenting Dwight Howard
Shaq will do anything to avoid making free throws, even if it means eating all the hot sauces combined. That’s how he despises free throws. Maybe Shaq hates anything that comes for free because of his upbringing, or maybe he’s just bad at it.
Say what you will about his offensive prowess, but his Achilles’ heel was always on the line. Going 0-for-11 from the line is a stat no one should be proud of, but Shaq dismisses it because he won a championship that year.
Just because you won a championship doesn’t excuse that flaw in your game, big man!
Using rings as an argument not to FT is like using a papier-mâché sword against Freiza. Sure, you can make him laugh out loud, but that doesn’t mean it’s okay! The only other thing Big Diesel could have hated more on the show was if Sean asked him to congratulate Dwight Howard.
