"The Big Shamrock" was called in to help out Los Angeles Port Police.

LOS ANGELES - NBA icon and legendary Los Angeles Laker Shaquille O’Neal, commonly known as Shaq, lent a hand and made a surprise cameo appearance in a Los Angeles Port police recruitment video.

In the video, Los Angeles Port Police officers called in "The Big Aristotle," and "Big Diesel" during a fake arrest in a video posted to X, formerly known as Twitter.

Accompanied by dramatic film music, the four-time NBA champion and "Inside the NBA" host pulled up to the fictional scene in a Lenco BearCat vehicle in full uniform to help the department.

"Team is more important than any of us," Officer O’Neal said. "If you have what it takes to join the Los Angeles Port Police, come on down. It’s time to dive in."

Those interested in joining the force can visit the department’s website.

In 2021, Shaq was sworn in as a community relations director for the Henry County Sheriff’s Office in Georgia.

"Inside the NBA" returns to TNT on Oct. 24 for NBA Opening Night when the Lakers take on Golden State.
