When Zhang Hao came over, O'Neal's final hook shot test had just ended.
The Magician watched O'Neal's small hook shot, still in awe: "Shaq, your hook shot is amazing, its impact on the game definitely won't lose to Kareem!"
O'Neal liked this compliment, and reciprocated: "I learned this move by watching your clutch hook shot against the Celtics, and didn't expect it to suit me so well..."
During his injury break, O'Neal worked quite hard, not indulging in food like he did the last time. After his arm healed, he practiced hook shots and spin moves on his indoor basketball court at home. By then, his foot was mostly recovered, although overly exerting himself would still cause discomfort. It was not until today that he felt comfortable spinning, jumping, and sprinting freely.
After nearly three weeks of rest, he's finally recovered!
