Charles Barkley is just 4 years away from becoming a senior citizen! Or is he already moving like one? Jokes apart, the Philadelphia 76ers legend turned 61 today, and ‘Inside the NBA’ is dishing out tribute videos on social media to celebrate the Chuckster’s special day. Anyhow, nothing might beat what Shaquille O’Neal managed to pull off for his TNT buddy. While many would find this surprising, the Los Angeles Lakers legend just brought out his much-known goofy side as a gift for Barkley.  

Ernie Johnson stated, “I am pleased to announce Chuckster that Shaquille O’Neal has gotten you a very nice and a personal early birthday present”. Suddenly, the screen switched to a huge gift box out of which the 7ft giant popped out, screaming, “Hey, Happy Birthday”. Well, that was quite a jump scare. The Big Diesel pulled out some electrifying dance moves, holding balloons, and also wore a shirt that read, “Happy Birthday Chuck!”.

The funniest part was where after the end of Shaq’s tribute, Barkley kept his hands on his forehead in denial. A fan showcased this moment in the comments of TNT’s tweet, which has cracked up many. Clearly, Chuck is not too happy with Shaq’s gift for him.
