The “NBA on TNT” co-host was seemingly unaware of his own strength, after breaking off a piece of Jason Kelce from the commemorative item.

The NBA on TNT co-host, who turned 52 on Wednesday, had a hilarious reaction on air while inspecting the Jason and Travis Kelce bobblehead, which was given away at the Cleveland Cavaliers-Boston Celtics game on Tuesday night.

As O’Neal’s co-hosts Jamal Crawford, Candace Parker and Adam Lefkoe took turns holding the giveaway — which celebrated Jason Kelce’s retirement — they passed the piece of memorabilia down to the NBA Hall of Famer.

“Shaq, be very careful,” Lefkoe warned, before O’Neal made the bobbleheads instantly look smaller in his hand.

Nice,” O’Neal said, and then added about Travis’ accessory: “It’s even got the little gold chain.”

At the same moment, the retired athlete inexplicably pulled the Jason Kelce figurine out of his New Balance shoes.

“Geez, man, we can’t even have nice stuff around here,” Lefkoe joked.
O’Neal, seemingly nonplussed by his actions, smiled and then added: “My bad.”
For the former Los Angeles Lakers center, it was the second time in less than a month that he’s come into contact with the now-retired Philadelphia Eagles center.

In February, the NBA legend chatted with Kelce on an episode of his The Big Podcast with Shaq, and offered the athlete some retirement advice, sharing that he made “dumbass mistakes” involving his family in the past.

“My advice to you is that if you are going to retire, accept it,” O’Neal told Kelce. “Enjoy your family, brother. I made a lot of dumbass mistakes to where I lost my family and I didn’t have anybody.”
That’s not the case for you,” he said. “So enjoy your beautiful wife, enjoy your beautiful kids and never dwell on what we had.”

O’Neal added in part, “You got the ring. People know who you are. Enjoy.”

And after Jason officially retired on Monday, O’Neal contributed to a video message — along with other NBA and NFL stars — congratulating the former Philadelphia Eagle.

I knew you was going to do it. … Great career. Love you, love your family,” he said.

O’Neal went on to joke that Jason will have plenty of time on his hands now, and needs to start helping out around the house.

Welcome to my life. Lemme tell you what my life consists of. Nothing. Wake up, go outside. Pick up that paper. I know you’ve never done that before. Oh, you know what? You have your wife fix your plate, make your own plate, wash your own dishes, you take out the garbage. Now, welcome to my life buddy.”
