One Twitter user even added another perspective by explaining how this could be a smart move, as this could propel her into a larger (probably not better) dating pool of men.

The Tweet further explains how Men are weird & competitive like that, and some celebs and rich men will see Shaq DM to her as a stamp of approval.

Therefore, he ended his theory by wittingly adding, “She better buckle up for the fb*i ride coming her way, lol.”
