If you’re being berated by millions on the internet, Shaquille O’Neal is a good guy to have on your side. The 7’1″ NBA legend spoke to TMZ Sports in support of the disgraced singer, saying that “he’s a good man.” Shaq noted that Adam Levine is “coming to help kids out this weekend” by performing at The Event — an annual fundraising gala for the Shaquille O’Neal Foundation. Coincidentally, Maroon 5 is performing alongside John Mulaney, who recently faced his own controversy and rumors of infidelity.
