Shaquille O’Neal, an NBA superstar, was photographed soaking up the sun on a yacht with friends off the coast of Mykonos on Wednesday, joining his fellow basketball players in relaxing in the Mediterranean.
The NBA great, better known as DJ Diesel, is presently on a summer tour.
He has previously made stops in the United States, including the Encore Beach Club in Las Vegas, the Governor’s Ball in New York, and a July 4th party in New Jersey, and the 51-year-old recently embarked on the European leg of the tour.
Shaq wrapped off the leg with gigs in Ibiza, Croatia, and Spain earlier this month, culminating on July 17 at the Tomorrowland Festival in Belgium.
Before returning to the United States, Shaq appears to have taken some time off before the gigs resume, with the seven-foot-one former center scheduled to perform again on July 29 in Las Vegas.

NBA legend Shaquille O’Neal was spotted soaking up the sun on a yacht with friends
He was seen on a smaller speed boat being transported out to the luxury yacht with a group of friends.
The former-player-turned-analyst was then spotted lounging aboard the yacht, which appeared to be a Pershing 7X, out at sea.
The 70-foot-long sports cruiser, which can fit 16 people aboard, is thought to be worth around $3.2million.
He appeared to be with a group of around 10 friends, including a glamorous young brunette in a hot pink bikini and gold hoop earrings.
The group appeared to be filming the experience as one member of the party was spotted sitting at the back of the yacht with a film production camera in hand.
Shaq himself was even seen with the camera, his seven-foot-one frame making it look tiny in his hands as he focused it out to sea.
