Shaquille O'Neal's spent a lot of his NBA career in Florida, which is the inspiration for the Reebok Shaqnosis Florida Rivalry Pack. This dual sneaker release is designed to match the colorways of the Orlando Magic and the Miami Heat, both of which Shaq played for during his career.
The legendary career of Shaquille O'Neal started when the Orlando Magic drafted him 1st overall in 1992. He spent several years developing in Orlando before moving on to the Lakers in Los Angeles. Later in his career, he'd sign with the Miami Heat and return to Florida where he'd win another NBA Championship.
Paying homage to Shaq's stints in Florida, Reebok produced one sneaker in black, blue and white (Orlando colors) and another in red, white and black (Miami colors).
