Shaquille O’Neal is one of the NBA’s greatest legends and his stories often seem a great fiction. Some are too good to be true and others that seem absurd have already been confirmed by others.

Now Shaq has joined a special group of individuals who believe Stevie Wonder can see. His report on TNT’s Inside The NBA came after great pressure from Kenny Smith, his fellow on the show.

With a slightly repressed smile, O’Neal told the story of how the famous “blind” musician recognized him without any introduction when they were both getting on the elevator up at the same time:

“He comes in, says ‘what’s up Shaq.’ Presses the button, it’s a true story, presses the button, gets off on his floor by himself, goes to his room. I went and called every person I knew and told the story. They didn’t believe me,” Shaq said.

Shaq can now team up with others who doubt Stevie Wonder’s blindness. Among them are Lionel Richie (friend of the musician who also claims that Stevie can see) and Antony Anderson. The talented and award-winning musician/songwriter from Michigan has 25 Grammys awards in the curriculum and is recognized as one of the most successful names of the 20th century in music. Stevi Wonder was born prematurely and the condition eventually caused his blindness during the incubation period.
