O’Neal had become attached to the West tweeting fiasco in November 2022 when the “Flashing Lights” rapper took issue with the former Los Angeles Lakers big man for criticizing Kyrie Irving’s antisemitic tweets. West tweeted about O’Neal’s relationship with billionaire Jamie Salter which caused the NBA Hall of Famer to fire back. “Worry about your business, and to quote the once great Kanye [W]est ‘I got more money than you, so why would I listen to you,'” O’Neal tweeted in November 2022.
