When Shaquille O'Neal is not providing us with humour and analysis on TNT, one of his many endeavours includes being the minority owner of the Sacramento Kings. The Hall of Famer took up the role in 2013 and has had close ties with the organisation ever since. O'Neal isn't involved in the day-to-day business involving the franchise but we should surely expect a person in his position to be aware of the personnel on the team's roster. However, it appears Shaq was not too aware of the King's dealings this offseason as he thought they'd signed a player which they didn't. Speaking about the Washington Wizards in the Wizards Tipoff podcast, the four-time NBA champion surprisingly thought that Otto Porter had left D.C. to join Sacramento. "They lost an important piece in Otto Porter," he said. "He's now playing for my team in Sacramento."

Porter was a restricted free agent this summer but re-signed with the Wizards on a maximum four-year $106.5 million contract. 

However, there were conflicting reports on the player earlier in the offseason with reports claiming that the Kings had extended a max offer sheet to him, which was later denied.

It appears this was enough to throw O'Neal off as he clearly didn't know enough about the situation and where Porter will be playing next season. 

As both a minority owner and analyst, the NBA legend should've known this and will be quite embarrassed. 

The good news for his is there's still plenty of time before the new campaign begins, which gives Diesel an opportunity to brush up on the Sac roster and the dealings across the league. 

It might be time for TNT's Inside the NBA to get Charles Barkley off the hot seat and test Shaq's knowledge in the popular and hilarious annual early season segment of the show 'Who he play for'.

Interestingly, the California-based franchise was not even the closest team to landing Porter. The 24-year-old signed an offer sheet with the Brooklyn Nets, which Washington decided to match. 

The Wizards were willing to reward their starting small forward after he enjoyed a breakout year averaging a career-high 13.4 points and 6.4 rebounds while shooting 43.4 percent from three-point range.

He was a key part of the franchise's run to the second round of the playoffs, where they were beaten in a gurelling seven-game series by the Boston Celtics.

For O'Neal's benefit, Sacramento went on to sign veterans George Hill, Zach Randolph and Vince Carter.
