The famous NBA legend Shaquille O'Neal is quietly building his real estate empire, despite a recent interview in which he candidly spoke about losing everything that matters along the way. Known for his majestic presence both on and off the court, O'Neal opened up about his lonely life in a massive 9,300 square foot mansion. He urged Philadelphia Eagles center Jason Kelce not to repeat his mistakes, warning him not to lose what he has now.

According to publicly available data, O'Neal owns nine luxury properties scattered across Nevada, Texas, Georgia, and Florida.

In addition, he also owns a larger house in Sugar Land, Texas. Recently, after selling his mega-mansion in Orlando, Florida, the NBA legend purchased a five-bedroom, six-bathroom estate in the suburbs of Dallas, covering more than 480 square meters.

While the former basketball star and sports analyst continues to build his real estate empire, O'Neal imparts wisdom to young Kelsey, urging him to cherish family and avoid his own mistakes that led to loneliness.
