Shaq Bought Laptop For Fan Who Offered Condolences For Deaths Of His Sister & Kobe Bryant

NBA legend Shaquille O’Neal ist going through a very tough time right now.

After losing his sister, who lost her battle with cancer this past October, Shaq now lost one of his closest friends in Kobe Bryant.

Even though he and Bryant went through a couple of fights, in which certain things were said, they never lost respect for one another. After their active playing careers had come to an end, the two rekindled their relationship and had been friends ever since.

A man named Patrick Martin who was shopping at a Best Buy south of Atlanta, looking to buy a laptop, now told the story of how he spotted Shaq in the store and approached him to offer his sympathies for the deaths of Kobe Bryant and Ayesha Harrison-Jex, O’Neil’s sister.

Shaq was moved by the gesture, told Martin the laptop was on him and that he should get the nicest one.
