John Salley says Shaquille O’Neal once loaned him $70,000 when they were teammates and he needed money, and when he tried to pay him back Shaq refused to accept it, so he secretly wrote him in as an investor in his new business that’s equity he’ll get is worth way more “And when I needed cash, he said, ‘How much?’ Seventy. Seventy thousand. And then this deal, I went back and said, ‘I’m going to...’ He said, ‘No, no, we're good.’” “He didn’t want it back. And I was like, huh. And then somebody was like, ‘Yeah, people owe you, you still pay.’ And I was like, to this day, which I’m going to say on the show, because the cannabis business is becoming very, very good for us, I got him in my brain as an investor. You understand what I’m saying?” “So when I kick back, it’s how many years ago was that? At this percentage, if you would've put it in the bank, it would’ve given you this. Yeah, well, I'm going to give you this and this, and you can do whatever you want with it.” “When he was with Hoopz... Hoopz is one of my favorite people on the planet, she told him, she was like, ‘That’s a real cat.’ And he always knows it.”
