Basketball Hall of Famer Shaquille O'Neal took a break from the sports world to give the Los Angeles Port Authority a recruiting boost.
In a hilarious recruiting video, the NBA legend responds to a call to help bring in a suspect.
โThe team is more important than anyone of us. If you have what it takes to join the Los Angeles Port Police, then come on down,โ he says. โIt's time to dive in.โ
O'Neal helped theย Los Angeles Lakersย win three NBA championshipsย during his career.
He began his time as a Los Angeles Port Police reserve officer in 2002.
โBig thanks to @SHAQ for his continued support for law enforcement and spending time with his old police department,โ Port Police said in a post on X. โIt was great to see him back in our uniform!โ
The recruiting push comes as Los Angeles grapples with a spike in violent crime and sinking recruitment numbers.
