Scot Pollard, a former NBA player, recently shared his experience guarding O'Neal and even joked about how it left him with a permanent backache. Pollard, who stands at 6'11" and weighs 265 lbs, described O'Neal as a massive force at 360 pounds or possibly even heavier.
O'Neal himself has made varying claims about his weight during his career.
