WATCH: Me'Arah O'Neal, Daughter of Shaquille O'Neal, Shining at Nationals

The 2024 LSU target continues advancing her game this summer, competing at Nike Nationals.

Kim Mulkey and her LSU Tigers have been on a recruiting rampage ever since she took over the program. With a stacked 2023 class that features the No. 1 player in the country, Mikaylah Williams, business is booming in this area, but Mulkey’s staff is building for the long haul.

Earlier this year, Mulkey and her staff hosted 2024 target Me'Arah O’Neal for a visit down south. 

Yes, Shaquille O'Neal's daughter, who is quickly carving her own path on the hardwood as a four-star, Top 50 prospect in her class. 

It was clear getting down to Baton Rouge was of the utmost importance for O’Neal and her family where things have begun trending in the right direction.

Accompanying her on the trip earlier this year? The one and only Shaq, of course. 

For O’Neal, she’s beginning to hit her stride on the floor. Just 17 years old, and clearly given significant size thanks to Shaq being her father, she’s putting it all together. 

She’s received a plethora of offers over the last few months with LSU getting in on the action as well. Along with the Tigers, O'Neal has received scholarships from Baylor, Kentucky and Alabama, among others. 

O'Neal is carving her own path on the AAU circuit. After a big-time junior season, she carried her success into summer ball where she's been competing on the Nike EYBL circuit.
